  • Login to your new account.

  • Change your password to something memorable. (Users > Your Profile > bottom right)
  • While you are on this page you might also like to turn off “Use the Visual Editor when writing.” The visual editor is unnecessarily slow and is only for formating content. The non-visual editor provides enough formating control on its own through a simple “select and click” operation. For instance, once you have written your post, select a string of text by clicking and dragging your cursor through the words, then select the ‘b’ button. Your text will be encoded with the bold command. (more…)

Namely Wordpress plugins.

    The ultimate tag warrior is installed and working smoothly so far, and this newer version of WordPress seems to be relatively search engine friendly enough on it’’s own so I”ll experiment next with some RSS aggregation/integration.
