WordPress Plugins that stand the Test of Time
I've been engaging in a personal project recently to get all my OLD wordpress sites upgraded to 2.6 and on the latest versions of plugins and such.

Use Yahoo Site Explorer to get Top 10 Pages for your Site
A while back I installed an excellent plugin for Firefox called SearchStatus. In addition to showing me the pagerank and compete score of any page I visit (I think it does Alexa, but I have a different plugin for that), it also gives you this handy right-click menu with lots of neat stuff in it. Most useful was a list of all the pages that Google, MSN and Yahoo! index on your site. For this blog, the list is interesting, but I'm not trying to make a living being me, so I checked out OrlandoScene.TV, my up-and-coming video podcast.
Sharing Some Stats
OK, now that the Fringe Festival is long over, and the spike in traffic for Blogging Fringe has come and gone, what do we have to show for it? Not as much as I'd like, really. The fact that lots of our content is spread across other sites (MySpace, YouTube) doesn't really require anyone to use our site to get the content. With this audience, we don't really need to worry about feeds taking away from our traffic.

Comment Blitz! Sorry.
Wow, I actually got quite a few comments on my posts about MaxCast and Four Eyed Monsters, the Wine Haiku and others, but I have been neglecting my comments queue. I apologize to anyone who left comments. I get so much spam, I think I should get one of those 2 + 2 = ? systems like Mr. Josh Hallet.
If you're a blogger, what has worked for you? How do you fight the forces of evil?

Gallery 2 Integration with Wordpress
Does not work (at last not with this theme??). I have been playing with this crap for near on 6 hours with very little fruit. I got bunches of things fixed and added to my gallery, though. YAY for me!
