Two interesting things that caught my attention around the blogosphere lately. The first one is a really extensive

- Basic Technical Optimization
- Template Optimization
- Advanced Technical Optimization
- Altering your blog’s structure for high rankings
- Conversion optimization
- Comment optimization
- Off site blog SEO

I have always fancied my chances with tools and widgets which make blogging fun and easy. Bloggers who post regularly on professional blogs wish to concentrate more on the content for its freshness and readability, apart from being informative ofcourse. Based on my personal experience, we tend to spend more time in finding great images, links, tags, etc to support our post and make it more appealing. Had it not been great if your browser could understand what you are blogging about and suggested you pictures, articles, links and tags to make your posts more vibrant?
Be glad! With the advent of this smart firefox-IE-wordpress addon, such an assistance is at your disposal. Think of some valuable suggestions in context with your article you’re writing on the blog’s editor. It would save you a lot of time that is generally spent looking out for related content over the internet.

What is the difference between a CMS (content management system) and a Wiki?
In a nutshell:
Both are web based applications/software designed to allow many people to contribute content (typically articles … but podcast and videos are becoming more common) to a website.
I would say the basic difference is that a CMS (Ex: Drupal) is a closed system where only certain people can add or edit content to the website/cms.

While looking for a new theme for my
personal blog, I happened to stumble on The Unstandard Wordpress Theme by
Derek. Unlike several hundred themes which we might come across in a month, this particular theme caught my attention and hence deserves a review!
The Unstandard WordPress theme is distinguished from the typical WP themes. In Derek’s words:
Farewell to the blase reverse chronological text heavy front pages, and hello to visuals & imagery to lure visitors deeper into your website / blog.

I am glad to release the third WordPress plugin by Daily Blog Tips.
My Top Commentators is a plugin that allows a blogger to discover who are the most active commentators on his blog (via the WordPress Dashboard, so other people will not see this information). You can also use different time frames for this, so you can see the top commentators:
- Today
- Yesterday
- Last 7 days
- This month
- Last month
- This year
- Last year
Secondly, you can also see all the comments left by a single person, and edit or delete them via the plugin interface.
