Time for Change

October 10th, 2007 · No Comments · Miscellania

I’m really digging the new tagging feature that version 2.3 has implemented. It’s not a world-changing paradigm shift or anything, but it is a significant enhancement to the existing method of taxonomy.

What does all that mean? If I had more time, I’d go on forever. Suffice it to say that there is going to be some category housekeeping going on. I really appreciate the thoughtful inclusion of the powerful, but dangerous category to tags converter. How about a tag to category if I screw up?

I need to give this whole thing a think. What do I do with del.icio.us? It would be really cool if any of my tags automatically became del.cio.us tags. Anyway, hope everyone bears with me while I suss things out.

Google Maps Everywhere

In my usual dorky way, I was tremendously excited by the prospect of embeddable Google Maps.

Well, it’s here.

Very cool, only took 2 seconds, but I see one little problem. It totally hoses the visual editor in WordPress. Had to edit my profile to use “Code” only. I hate not using the WYSIWYG. It would be cool if the “write post” would start with “Code” first. I’m sure this bug will be fixed pretty quick.

Update 8/23: Google’s embed feature was widely featured yesterday. This morning, ALL of Google appears to be having a meltdown.
