Just a quick test drive Google Font on my Word­Press plat­form. I was think­ing to embed the code on my blog yes­ter­day but when I received a tweet from Smash­ing Mag­a­zine (@smashingmag) today, it seem the hard work has been taken away by Jeff Sebring. Awe­some!

The future of the fonts don’t seem to be lim­ited by OS pre­in­stalled font any more. The web would be some how renew with type­face that really cool and free.

Since it’s Google who started it and you bet you would get some type name that start with Android. I guess soon you would find other famil­iar name too. iPhone_name?

I enjoy play­ing with the fonts  and plu­g­ins. Since Google Font Direc­tory (Web Font) is still in Beta stage and so were the Plu­g­ins in the early stage I guess we can expect some sur­prises and awe­some­ness in the very near future.

The web is just becom­ing cool again

When Word­Press 2.5 was launched I waited more than a month before I upgrade, very lazy now that 2.6 is out I am still lazy. Ver­sion 2.5 was too much of has­sle and since 2.6 is almost iden­ti­cal to 2.5, I guess the upgrade should be not much of prob­lem. I am happy with 2.5 though the upgrade was painful (to me) too much work. I saw some­one on my twit­ter say “wait for 2.6.1” seri­ously, why?

Thanks to the devel­op­ers for bring­ing a fan­tas­tic and kick ass works! Thumb up!

While we are on this Word­Press topic, since Word­Press 2.5 fully sup­port Glob­ally Rec­og­nized Avatars or “Gra­vatar” in short please sign up for an Gra­vatar account and start load your avatar! It’s would be cool to see your avatar appear beside your com­ments

One thing I love about Word­Press, if you have time and if you dig around you just might learn some­thing and have fun with it.

Thank you Silvy, with­out your help on the mod_rewrite I don’t think I will get Pretty Perma­links working.

Perma­links are the per­ma­nent URLs to your indi­vid­ual weblog posts, as well as cat­e­gories and other lists of weblog post­ings. A perma­link is what another weblog­ger will use to refer to your arti­cle (or sec­tion), or how you might send a link to your story in an e-mail mes­sage. Espe­cially when they are used to link to indi­vid­ual post­ings, once a story is posted, the URL to it should be per­ma­nent, and never change — hence perma­link. ~ WordPress.org More

Wel­come to my blog! If you hap­pen to hit key­words on the search engine to know how to install your Word­Press, I rec­om­mend you to read the README files from the instal­la­tion. How­ever I don’t mine to answer any ques­tion you might have. Hope­fully I’ll be help­ful to you ehem! *Smile*

Finally, I’ve upgraded to WP 2.3.1! I really admire the devel­op­ers and I’ll con­tinue using WP – until some­thing bet­ter replaces WP, obvi­ously. There are few other devel­op­ers but right now WP is still 100% kick­ass! More
