WordPress 2.6 Released
WordPress 2.6 was released today and there are some new tidy features on the backend which I wasn’t expecting.
The plugins page has been transformed from a useful administration page in to a brilliant administration page. You can now delete those inactive plugins which aren’t going to use anymore without going in to FTP and deleting the files as well as the active and inactive plugins been seperated in to 2 seperate tables which is a really nice touch in my opinion.
I haven’t had any problems with the multitude of different plugins that are used in any of my sites.
I did come across one problem with wp_fluency_admin on one of my development wordpress installations, but I just removed the plugin, because I don’t really like the look of it anyway.
You can download the latest version of wordpress by visiting the wordpress website.

Postal The Movie DVD Release Date
It appears that the Postal DVD release date has been completely ignored. On the 16th June the DVD release of Uwe Boll’s Postal was supposed to be released in the UK.
On the 15th June, I ordered my copy on Play.com which said the DVD was to be released on the 16th. I checked on Amazon earlier in the month and it also said a 16th June release date. But before ordering through Play, I checked Amazon again. It was no longer available for purchase and had a notify option.
Come the 16th, Play had the same, notify.
Now the 28th is here and no DVD has hit my door mat and Play still says notify. Amazon says product is sent in 1-3 weeks.
Very odd indeed.
On CD Universe (USA) it says the release is the 26th August. Wikipedia seems to agree with this.

New Design
Polished up the design a bit. Haven’t tried it in anything other than Firefox 3, but there isn’t any CSS that shouldn’t work in IE or Opera except maybe the search.
I also will be going through and tagging all the old posts which weren’t tagged.
Categories can now be found at the top right of the page.

CSSViewer updated for Firefox 3 RC3
CSS Viewer has been updated to work on Firefox 3 which is a welcome relief being probably my second most used development tool behind the web developer toolbar.
As you can see from the screenshot, it isn’t perfect with text out of the box and not aligned in certain places, but still a very helpful tool none the less.

This is ENGLAND!!
It’s about time this really happened.
I’m sure there won’t be a shortage of kicking Gordon Brown, let alone kicking him down a well to his death. Petrol/diesel prices continue to rise day by day and mindless vandalism is up even though figures show it is going down. No one is fooled by the statistics. The only reasons the figures are down is because the Government is constantly changing what is defined as a crime. Note 1 and 2.
