<p>The first one is all about using custom slugs for the built in BuddyPress components.</p>
<p>BuddyPress (by default) functions around the URL structure. That is, when you punch in a particular URL it analyzes that URL and then works out what you are trying to do.</p>
<p>For example, the URL <code>http://example.org/members/andy/messages</code> tells BuddyPress that you are looking at the <code>members</code> area for member <code>andy</code>, and then in the <code>messages</code> component trying to view the newest messages in your inbox. BuddyPress will then perform all its internal checks to make sure you have the credentials to view this page, fetch the messages, then forward onto a template file to display them.</p>
<p>As you can see from that example, slugs in BuddyPress are an integrated part of how the application functions. So how do we change them?</p>
<p>It&#8217;s actually as simple as defining the slugs you want to use in your wp-config.php file. All the slugs for every built in component can be changed. Here&#8217;s a list of settings you can add (with some alternate slugs already set), that will change the slugs for each component:</p>

Starting with <a href="http://wordpress.org/development/2008/10/usability-testing-report-25-and-crazyhorse/">testing 2.5 and the Crazyhorse prototype</a> and following with the 2.7 beta, the testing program looked at almost every feature and function in the application. That kind of thing? Takes a lot of time. <img src="http://wordpress.org/development/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="wp-smiley" /> </p>
<p>For readers who aren&#8217;t familiar with the process behind usability testing, here&#8217;s an overview. First, determine the scope of your test and create a test protocol/script. Determine the audience segments to be included in the test group(s), and begin recruiting. Recruiting may mean hiring an agency to find participants, but for testing WordPress, it makes more sense to recruit from within this community, so that means making a screening survey, reading all the responses, segmenting the respondents into categories and contacting people until you&#8217;ve filled your desired quotas (for whatever segments you&#8217;re seeking, such as newbie, experienced user, developer, CMS user, photoblogger, mobile user, etc. ). Then come the test sessions.</p>
<p>Depending on what is being tested, these last anywhere from half an hour to an hour and half apiece. Sessions are generally recorded using screen capture and web cam, with a video camera for backup. The moderator(s) generally take notes during sessions and/or (depending on what software is being used for the session capture) set markers in the video to indicate task completion, comments of interest, etc.  In some cases, auxiliary test methods such as eye-tracking may be included. When the sessions are complete, the results are analyzed. All the notes and videos are reviewed, patterns are identified, and ultimately a report is written and the feedback informs the next round of revisions.</p>
<p>Some people think it shouldn&#8217;t take much time to do all this. I&#8217;ve lost count of the number of people who cite <a href="http://www.useit.com/alertbox/20000319.html">an old article by Jakob Nielsen</a> that says you don&#8217;t need to test with more than 5 users because usability issues become clear right away. While I&#8217;ve found that to be generally true, when your user base is as diverse in experience level, usage, platform  configuration, language (right to left languages have a pretty different experience) and demography as the WordPress community is, 5 users really isn&#8217;t enough to get a clear picture. We try to test with at least a dozen people each round, but then we are limited to a geographic region (test in NY, test in SF, or test wherever we can schedule enough people back to back to make it worthwhile), while WordPress users are located all over the globe.</p>
<p>To address this, we&#8217;re introducing a set of new contribution opportunities to expand our usability testing program. As with development and graphic design, we&#8217;re going to create an infrastructure to allow community participation in usability testing on a regular basis and in a much broader capacity than existed before, when it was limited to announcements that we needed participants in <em>x</em> city on <em>y</em> date. We&#8217;ll be looking for volunteer moderators as well as participants, hopefully from all over the world.</p>
<p><strong>Moderators.</strong> Observational usability testing isn&#8217;t rocket science, but neither is it a simple task to reduce bias. Because of this, at first we&#8217;ll choose only moderators who have professional experience conducting usability tests. People who conduct testing for design agencies, software companies, usability consulting firms and the like will be our first round draft picks. In the future, when we have a group of regular volunteers and have ironed out any kinks in the process, we&#8217;ll ideally match up experienced testers with aspiring ones, using a mentorship model to increase the number of people who can contribute in this fashion.</p>
<p><strong>Participants.</strong> If you use WordPress, chances are you could participant in a usability test at some point. In some cases we&#8217;re looking for particular behaviors (people who upload large video files, people who blog from their iPhone, people who manage more than 5 blogs, etc.), while other times the behaviors we&#8217;re looking for are much more common (do you have widgets in your sidebar, have you changed themes in the last 6 months, is there more than one author on your blog, etc.).</p>
<p><strong>So how will these opportunities come into play, and how will it make WordPress better?</strong></p>
<p>We&#8217;ll start with the moderators, and try to get volunteers with a decent geographic spread. Then, we&#8217;ll start signing up potential test participants in those areas (though we&#8217;ll also allow at-large registrations, since traveling testing will still be happening). We&#8217;re working on a registration process for potential participants. You&#8217;ll enter your basic info (location, contact info) and answer some questions about your WordPress usage to be entered in the database, and when there&#8217;s a testing opportunity coming up that&#8217;s appropriate for you, a local moderator will get in touch to see if you&#8217;re interested. Further down the road we may experiment with remote testing and other methods, but for now, this approach will broaden the geographic scope of our testing.</p>
<p>All moderators will follow the same test protocols and script, and their results/reports/video will be reviewed and collated, with a composite report (including the protocol/script that was used) published to the community. This will provide designers and developers with broader feedback during the dev cycle, and will allow the wider community to both understand and participate in the testing program.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re interested in being a moderator during this initial phase (meaning you do it professionally), <a href="http://jane.wordpress.com/contact-me/">send me an email</a> and introduce yourself.

I am very active there and have tried to encourage people to start participating, sharing and asking. We hope to make it as valuable of a resource as possible and even have plans for some custom development of our own (ok, we already have custom development, we just need to release our work).</p>";}i:4;a:7:{s:5:"title";s:32:"Peter Westwood: WordCamp UK 2009";s:4:"guid";s:32:"http://westi.wordpress.com/?p=81";s:4:"link";s:55:"http://westi.wordpress.com/2009/05/03/wordcamp-uk-2009/";s:11:"description";s:2005:"<div class="snap_preview"><br /><p>WordCamp returns to the UK again this year and we hope it will be bigger and better than last year especially as we have convinced <a href="http://ma.tt">Matt</a> to attend this year.</p>

Now there is: <a href="http://buddypress.org/">check out BuddyPress</a>.</p>
<p>BuddyPress is an official sister project of WordPress. The idea behind it was to see what would happen to the web if it was as easy for anyone to create a social network as it is to create a blog today. There&#8217;s been an explosion of social activity on the web, it&#8217;s probably the most important trend of the past few years, but there&#8217;s been a dearth of Open Source tools that enable the social web.</p>
<p>In WordPress we have a robust and extensible base that can scale to many millions of users, and BuddyPress is essentially a set of plugins on top of WordPress that add private messaging, profiles, friends, groups, activity streams, and everything else you&#8217;ve come to expect from your favorite social network, like a Facebook-in-a-box.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t think BuddyPress will be something you use <em>instead of</em> your existing social networks, I mean all your friends are already on Myspace, but if you wanted to start something new maybe with more control, friendlier terms of service, or just something customized and tweaked to fit exactly into your existing site, then BuddyPress is a great framework to use. Maybe even someday you&#8217;ll be able to connect your BuddyPresses to each other and to the existing monolithic social networks.</p>
<p>This is just a 1.0 release and it&#8217;s not for everybody yet, for example it currently requires using MU which is a bit trickier to get set up than regular WordPress, but regardless <a href="http://buddypress.org/">I&#8217;d recommend diving into the community at BuddyPress.org</a>, which is great example of the software in action.</p>

<p>This release marks over a year of solid development, starting from the roots of the <a href="http://chickspeak.com/">ChickSpeak</a> project, all the way to the blossoming developer community I see interacting on this site everyday.</p>
<p>This is just the first step on a long road ahead. So much is possible now that we have a solid WordPress-based social framework to build upon.</p>
<p>The status updates and gallery components are next on the roadmap, you can expect to see versions of those components appearing later this year. We&#8217;ll also be going through the hundreds of enhancement tickets we&#8217;ve received, and with your help prioritizing them for future versions.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m most excited to see what plugin developers and theme designers can come up with. Even in the pre-release stages, <a href="http://buddypress.org/extend/plugins/">plugins</a> to extend and add functionality have already been popping up. If you&#8217;re a plugin developer or theme designer, be sure to check out the <a href="http://codex.buddypress.org/how-to-guides/creating-a-custom-buddypress-component/">skeleton component</a> and <a href="http://codex.buddypress.org/how-to-guides/creating-a-custom-buddypress-theme/">skeleton theme</a>. These packages will provide you with a solid starting point to build BuddyPress components and custom themes from.</p>
<p>I&#8217;d also like to give some serious thanks to the community that has rallied around this project. I was told that getting people excited and involved with a new OSS project can be one of the hardest tasks to accomplish. I&#8217;m really bowled over that so many people have become involved with BuddyPress development and feedback on a daily basis.</p>
<p>I&#8217;d like to give a mention to every developer who has helped with the project, whether it be with tickets, advice, feedback or support:</p>

I&#8217;m really bowled over that so many people have become involved with BuddyPress development and feedback on a daily basis.</p>
<p>I&#8217;d like to give a mention to every developer who has helped with the project, whether it be with tickets, advice, feedback or support:</p>

are counted, and the results are interesting. The table below shows the actual breakdown of the poll votes, of which there were 2,651. As you can see, there were four main contenders: Dean J. Robinson&#8217;s Fluency-based submissions (two variations), the existing 2.7 interface, and Matt Thomas&#8217;s comp (MT), which exists somewhere between them in terms of style.

<p>As several people have rightly pointed out, the Fluency-style designs not only took the top spot, but in combination added up to a higher percentage than any other. We&#8217;re not focusing solely on that statistic, though, because had other designers submitted multiple versions, the numbers might have looked different. What was most interesting for me was checking in on the votes over the course of the two days the poll was open. The top three (Fluency-dark, Current 2.7, MT) kept beating each other out for the #1 spot as they cycled back and forth through the top three slots, and had the poll closed on time (left it open a little longer in case anyone translated the time zone incorrectly), the order would have been a bit different.</p>
<p>What&#8217;s more interesting to me is the overall style that seems to be preferred among voters, as Matt&#8217;s comp has some stylistic similarities to Dean&#8217;s (see image at left). It also would be interesting to know how many of the votes for the current 2.7 interface were based on thinking it looked the best vs. how many were votes against changing the interface at all so soon after the 2.7 redesign. If you want to comment on what you liked best and/or least about any of the designs, <a href="http://wordpress.org/support/topic/265261">this thread</a> is a good place.</p>
<p>So what happens now? However we look at it, the Fluency-style designs clearly have a lot of fans. Then again, so do the designs of Matt Thomas (he&#8217;s behind the current style of 2.7, remember, in addition to the comp labeled MT). To give the interface the attention it is due, and to take seriously some of the interface feedback around usability and accessibility, we&#8217;re going to leave the looks alone for 2.8. It&#8217;s our guess that a revised style will make into 2.9 early in the development cycle to allow us plenty of time for user testing and revision. How close it winds up being to the comps submitted in this design tweaks challenge will depend, but in the meantime:</p>

To me a &#8220;smart&#8221; blog is a blog that behaves differently depending on its visitors&#8217; behavior and characteristics.</p>
<p>A simple example of this is a blog that displays a list of today&#8217;s most popular posts on the sidebar.  The list changes based on visitors&#8217; behavior so to this is definitely a smart blog feature.  There are plenty of WordPress plugins out there that do this for you automatically (e.g. <a href="http://ajaydsouza.com/wordpress/plugins/top-10/">Top 10</a>), but that is not the point.  The point here is that having the ability to morph your blog per visitor activity can assist you in meeting your conversion goals (whatever they may be).  A list of popular posts is quite a simple feature, so let me take you to another level by showing you more ways to make your blog smart.</p>
<h3>List of &#8220;Smart&#8221; Features to Implement on Your Blog</h3>
<p><strong>1. Display a different welcome message to different people</strong></p>
<p>A great way to meet conversion goals is to display different things to different types of visitors.  For example, you can show a welcome message only to new visitors and not to returning visitors.  The message could be used to encourage new visitors to subscribe to your blog&#8217;s RSS feed, to download your eBook, to follow the your Twitter, or to satisfy any other conversion goal.  You can also specify a call-to-action in the message depending on where the visitor is coming from.  For example, you can ask your visitor to Digg your post if the visitor is referred to you from digg.com.</p>
<p>There are already some plugins that automatically do this for you (e.g. <a href="http://omninoggin.com/wordpress-plugins/wp-greet-box-wordpress-plugin/">WP Greet Box</a> and <a href="http://www.phoenixheart.net/2008/11/referrer-detector/">Referrer Detector</a>) in case you were wondering how you can implement such a feature on your WordPress blog.  Again the point here is that these plugins give you the ability to morph your blog based on your audience.</p>
<p><strong>2. Show where other people went from current post</strong></p>
<p>This feature is similar to a list of related posts, but is a bit different because the list is determined by visitor behavior.  Most related posts plugins use an algorithm to determine post relativity, but algorithms only go so far.  Why not trust your human visitors to generate this list of related posts for you?</p>
<p>To implement this feature, you can install the <a href="http://ajaydsouza.com/wordpress/plugins/where-did-they-go-from-here/">Where did they go from here?</a> plugin.  This plugin will add a &#8220;Readers who viewed this page, also viewed&#8221; section after your blog posts and track visitor activity to fill up these lists.</p>
<p><strong>3. Show related post based on search queries</strong></p>
<p>When a visitor comes to your site through a search engine, they are looking for something very specific.  If they land on your site and do not immediately find what they are looking for, they are as good as gone.  It would be smart for a blog to detect these search terms from search engine visitors and display a list of posts that closely matches these terms.  That way if the current post is not what the visitor is looking for, they will be tempted to visit other posts relating to their search terms before they leave your site.</p>
<p>To implement this, all you have to do is install either <a href="http://omninoggin.com/wordpress-plugins/wp-greet-box-wordpress-plugin/">WP Greet Box</a>, <a href="http://www.phoenixheart.net/2008/11/referrer-detector/">Referrer Detector</a>, or <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/landing-sites/">Landing Sites</a> WordPress plugin.</p>
<p><strong>4. Thank a first time commenter</strong></p>
<p>Most people love human interaction.  I love reading blogs because I know that there is somebody on the other side that I can email and chat with.  A good way to gain loyal readers is to thank first time commenters for contributing to your blog.  This helps you breaks the ice and assure your new reader that you are there if they ever want to email you.</p>
<p>For this feature, you can use the <a href="http://www.justinshattuck.com/2007/03/19/comment-relish-wordpress-plugin/">Comment Relish</a> WordPress plugin.</p>
<p><strong>5. Display custom message to people who use Ad Block software</strong></p>
<p>I know I&#8217;m going to get flamed for introducing this feature, but here goes anyway (please don&#8217;t flame me too much).</p>
<p>If you are a blogger that makes the majority of your money from advertisements, your income is definitely hurt from ad block software installed with your visitor&#8217;s browser.  A smart blog would remind visitors with ad block software that they are using ad block and suggest that they turn it off to support the blog.  Of course this message shouldn&#8217;t be displayed more than once or the blog will definitely lose traffic.</p>
<p>If you are interested in this feature, you can check out the <a href="http://omninoggin.com/wordpress-plugins/anti-adblock-wordpress-plugin/">Anti-AdBlock</a> WordPress plugin, which will display any message you like at any frequency (I recommend once) to visitors with ad block enabled.</p>
<p><strong>6. Selective advertising</strong></p>
<p>As you may know, Google Ads does &#8220;smart pricing&#8221; to determine how much they pay you per click.  This means that if your ad has high click-through ratio, then they will pay more per click.  You can optimize this click-through ratio by not displaying ads in situations where you know that they are not going to be clicked.  To do this, you have to realize that there are two types of visitors to your blog: new and returning.  New visitors are more likely to click on an advertisement than returning visitors so it is best if you do not show these ads to returning visitors at all.</p>
<p>You can implement this feature by installing <a href="http://planetozh.com/blog/my-projects/wordpress-plugin-who-sees-ads-control-adsense-display/">Who Sees Ads?</a>, which is the ultimate plugin for selectively displaying advertisments.</p>
<p><strong>7. Mini &#8220;About&#8221; section only for new visitors</strong></p>
<p>Have you even been to a blog that as a mini &#8220;About&#8221; section in the sidebar? (If not, you can check out <a href="http://planetozh.com/blog/">Planet Ozh</a>&#8217;s sidebar)  Doesn&#8217;t it make sense to show this section only to new visitors?  Hiding the section for returning visitors helps you reduce clutter in your sidebar and helps you bring other important content above the fold.</p>
<p>You can also implement this using <a href="http://planetozh.com/blog/my-projects/wordpress-plugin-who-sees-ads-control-adsense-display/">Who Sees Ads?</a>.  Just treat the &#8220;About&#8221; section as an ad unit in your sidebar and specify that it should only be displayed to new visitors.</p>
<p><strong>8. Ask for donations from returning visitors</strong></p>
<p>To me, it doesn&#8217;t really make sense to ask a new visitor for donations because I&#8217;m not sure how they feel about my content yet.  Now if the visitor returns quite often, then I know that my content is useful to them.  I am more comfortable asking regular readers for donations as they are more inclined to donate anyway.  To me, this feature implemented along with feature #6 makes a whole lot of sense.  New visitors only see ads and returning visitors only see donation requests.</p>
<p>You can also implement this feature with <a href="http://planetozh.com/blog/my-projects/wordpress-plugin-who-sees-ads-control-adsense-display/">Who Sees Ads?</a>.  Just treat the donate banner as an ad unit and specify that it should only be displayed to regular visitors.</p>
<p><strong>9. Display &#8220;Out on Vacation&#8221; message</strong></p>
<p>Everybody needs to take a break once in a while.  Wouldn&#8217;t it be nice to let your readers know that you are on vacation and let them know when to expect you back?  That way you don&#8217;t lose readers from inactivity or lose readers who comment expecting an immediate reply.</p>
<p>This is not really a feature based on visitor behavior, but I feel that it is still a smart feature because the message is only displayed to visitors that visit within a certain time period.</p>
<p>You can again use <a href="http://planetozh.com/blog/my-projects/wordpress-plugin-who-sees-ads-control-adsense-display/">Who Sees Ads?</a> to display an &#8220;Out on Vacation&#8221; message near the top of your blog between a specific date range.  I love this because when you come back from vacation, you won&#8217;t have to remember to take down the notification banner.  You can also reuse the same notification banner the next time you go on vacation.</p>
<h3>Conclusion</h3>
<p>By now, I think you guys get what I mean by a &#8220;smart&#8221; blog.  Hopefully, these powerful plugins can help you reshape your blog into a more visitor oriented blog.</p>

Some people just moved a few things around, while others proposed a new style altogether. We won&#8217;t make any major changes to style in 2.8, but if the vote leans toward a submission that proposes it, we&#8217;ll do some user testing and make a decision for early 2.9 (which, now that we think of it, is probably the right thing to do anyway. <img src="http://wordpress.org/development/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="wp-smiley" /> )</p>
<p>Below are the links to the screenshots that were submitted. Please review each one (I&#8217;d open them all in tabs so I could look back and forth while they are all large size, because the voting poll just uses thumbnails), then choose the one you think looks the best/is the most usable.</p>
<p>This poll was supposed to close at 8pm NY time on Tuesday (today), but we&#8217;re going to leave it open for an extra day. The voting poll will now be closed at 8pm NY time on Wednesday (that&#8217;s 2am Thursday, UTC). If you want to discuss the entries&#8217; pros/cons, <a href="http://wordpress.org/support/topic/265261">this thread</a> would be a good place.</p>

Since we <a href="http://blog.akismet.com/2007/11/27/it-really-is-spam/">last posted about this</a>, the more sophisticated spammers have progressed from old standbys like &#8220;nice post&#8221; and &#8220;great blog&#8221;, to more cunning things like questions (&#8221;where can I download your theme?&#8221;) and appeals to your helpful nature (&#8221;I&#8217;m having trouble subscribing to your RSS feed&#8221;).</p>
<p>Akismet almost always catches these kinds of bogus comments.</p>
<p>The tip-off of course is that they often include a link to a site that&#8217;s advertising dubious or sleazy merchandise (or worse, a web site that harms the viewer&#8217;s computer).  But it&#8217;s easy to forget to look at the link before approving a comment, or give the comment author the benefit of the doubt without checking closely.  And spammers have recently learned to post several comments over time, the first of which contains no link or obvious clue.  (We call these <em>precursor spams</em>).</p>
<p>Anyway, a comment is a comment, right, so what&#8217;s the harm in approving a few tame platitudes, even if they were posted by spammers?</p>
<p>Unfortunately it <em>is</em> harmful, and most of the damage is <em>to your own site</em>.</p>
<p>By moving these comments out of your spam folder and publishing them on your blog, you&#8217;re doing three things, all of them bad:</p>
<p><strong>1. You are undermining your site&#8217;s SEO.</strong></p>
<p>The spammer&#8217;s web site might seem inoffensive on face value.  But the black-hat SEO and spam methods used by its promoter are not. That same spammer is busy building backlinks from anywhere they can find them, including some of the web&#8217;s worst neighbourhoods.  By regularly publishing links to spammers&#8217; web sites, you&#8217;re giving Google and other search engines a hint that links from your blog are poor quality.</p>
<p>Now it&#8217;s true that Google will <em>try</em> not to penalize a web site for inadvertently linking to a <a href="http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&amp;answer=35769#3">bad neighbourhood</a>.  But even if they don&#8217;t, you are weakening the value of each of the other links from your blog - &#8220;diluting your GoogleJuice&#8221;, if you like - and helping to validate the spammer&#8217;s web site.  In some cases you might even find that <em>you are helping the spammer overtake your blog in search engine results</em>.</p>
<p><strong>2. You are attracting more spammers.</strong></p>
<p>Less skilled spammers will deliberately <em>seek out blogs that other spammers have successfully spammed</em>, because they know they are easy targets.  Organized spammers circulate lists of such blogs (for a small fee of course).  And professionals keep their own lists of previous victims, because they know future spam is even more likely to be approved there.  By letting some spam through - even seemingly harmless ones - you are providing a signal to spammers that your blog is a profitable target.  (Experienced bloggers will be familiar with this phenomenon: you accidentally approve one seemingly unremarkable spam comment, and a big batch of ugly spam follows soon after).</p>
<p>WordPress and many other blog applications have a feature, independent of Akismet, where regular users who have had at least one comment approved, will automatically skip the moderation queue next time and have their comments published right away.  Spammers know this, and they&#8217;ll come back to take advantage of it.  Often they&#8217;ll link to a harmless looking site in their first comment (or include no link at all), but link to progressively more blatant spam in subsequent comments.</p>
<p><strong>3. You are damaging your reputation.</strong></p>
<p>You might not click on the links in all the comments on your blog, but some of your readers will.  And some of those links will go to sites that are sleazy, offensive, or harmful.</p>
<p>Worse still, a spam tactic that is becoming more popular is to first post a small number of spam comments on innocent blogs; then send a large volume of spam to other web sites linking to the blog post that contains those comments.  (They do this to try to get around spam filters and blacklist that recognize and catch links to their own site).</p>
<p>If you do publish spam comments on your blog, you might discover later that thousands of other blogs and forums have been spammed with <em>links to your blog</em>.</p>
<p>So what should you do about it?</p>
<p>Akismet will almost always catch these comments and put them in your Spam folder.  Usually you don&#8217;t need to do anything; just don&#8217;t approve them for publication.</p>
<p>We have a real-time view of spam activity on millions of blogs around the world, so we can detect <em>patterns in behaviour</em> that can&#8217;t be seen by looking at any one single comment.  If a bland, generic comment turns up in your spam folder, you should be suspicious of it - Akismet flagged it for a reason.  Think twice before approving it for publication.  Unless you know the author, it almost certainly <em>is</em> spam &#8212; or a subtle precursor to it.</p>
<p>Also, keep an eye out for forthcoming Akismet updates.  In addition to our usual work behind the scenes monitoring and adapting to new spam techniques, we&#8217;re developing some new features designed specifically to help protect against the potential harm done by spammers.</p>

With <a href="http://wordpress.org/development/2009/04/has-patch-marathon-results/">WordPress 2.8 around the bend</a> and the <a href="http://wordpress.org/development/2009/04/summer-of-code-students-announced/">Google Summer of Code</a>, I have very high hopes for this year. Here are some links for those that have not yet participated or looked into our past WordPress Plugin Competitions:</p>

<h4>ACT I</h4>
<p><strong>Jane:</strong> It is a thorn in my side that the blog name header is above the &#8220;dashboard&#8221; nav section in the admin, since in MU installations and with plugins (like stats), things in the Dashboard section span multiple blogs. Makes more sense for the header to head only the per-blog content area.</p>
<p><strong>Mark:</strong> I agree about the header. &#8220;This is the menu, this is the content.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>All: </strong>Yep.</p>
<p><span><em>Five minutes later&#8230;</em></span></p>
<p><strong>Mark: </strong>What do you guys this of this quick mockup I just did, playing with the admin header?<br />
<img src="http://wpdotorg.wordpress.com/files/2009/04/mark-mockup.png" alt="Mark Jaquith's mockup" />
</p>
<p><strong>Jane: </strong>I like it that the nav is not under the header. Might need some styling help. I was also thinking maybe the favorites menu should drop down into the white h2 area by screen options/help tabs.</p>
<p><strong>Ryan: </strong>Menu color to the top with blog title pushed over and favorites next to screen options sounds quite nice.</p>
<p><strong>Jane: </strong>I&#8217;ll ask Matt Thomas if he could style it <em>[ed. note: Matt Thomas created the visual style for 2.7]</em>, and we can see what people think, maybe post on <a href="http://wpdevel.wordpress.com/">wpdevel</a> for feedback.</p>
<p><strong>Ryan: </strong>If it&#8217;s quick, maybe we could even get it into 2.8.</p>
<h4>ACT II</h4>
<p><strong>Matt T: </strong>Here are some comps based on what you told me.</p>
<p><strong>Jane: </strong>Cool, but where are Screen Options and Help tabs?</p>
<p><strong>Matt T: </strong>Still working on that.</p>
<p><strong>Jane: </strong>Hm. Wonder if there&#8217;s time to open this up to community designers? I know we&#8217;re in freeze, and it&#8217;s no notice, but you didn&#8217;t get any notice either when we dropped this styling request on your lap a few hours ago. That&#8217;s the way open software development works: sometimes the best ideas come at the last minute!</p>
<p><strong>Matt T:</strong> I&#8217;m all for letting the community take a stab at it. Especially if they come up with something brilliant to do with the Screen Options and Help tabs.</p>
<p><strong>Jane: </strong>I&#8217;ll ask Ryan about release date and see if there&#8217;s time. I know they wanted your style recommendations today.</p>
<h4>Act III</h4>
<p><strong>Ryan: </strong>Tuesday is probably doable, no later than that for final delivery of style and any gradient graphics, etc.</p>
<p><strong>Jane: </strong>Awesome! People will hate me for the short notice after the has-patch marathon, but since it&#8217;s a small project and over the weekend, and wasn&#8217;t even something anyone was planning until a few hours ago, I&#8217;m <strong>*really hoping*</strong> people will take this for what it is, an attempt to give more people input into an upcoming visual change in the interface, even if it&#8217;s not a huge one.</p>
<p><strong>Ryan:</strong> Would have the benefit of warning people that header and menu will be changed a bit.</p>
<p><strong>Jane:</strong> And we can have a vote. If I can get all the materials together and post in the morning, that would give 2 days of design time for submissions on Monday, and if we do a day of voting Tuesday, that&#8217;s 3 days notice for the vote. I&#8217;ll make sure to post to all the lists, etc.</p>
<p><strong>Ryan: </strong>Will we announce with comps from Matt T as examples of what we&#8217;re thinking?</p>
<p><strong>Jane:</strong> I&#8217;ll write up the UX reasons for considering the change, and Matt T can provide some style guidelines and his original comps so no one will have to waste time mocking up the basic screen layout.</p>
<p><strong>Ryan:</strong> That would help set the scope. We just want tweaks here and there, given the timing.</p>
<p><strong>Jane: </strong>Woot!</p>
<p><strong>On Your Mark, Get Set&#8230;</strong><br />
Okay, so here&#8217;s the deal. Modifying the nav/header to be a little nicer is was a last-minute design idea, and if it can&#8217;t be worked out in the time we have left before 2.8 (which is very little), we&#8217;ll just wait until 2.9 to work on it. But! If someone comes up with something the community really likes and it doesn&#8217;t break any of the design guidelines for the rest of WordPress, we could sneak it in.</p>
<p><a href="http://wordpress.org/development/?page_id=661">UX and design guidelines for this mini-project are posted here</a> (so as not to clog up anyone&#8217;s feed reader with big graphics). Read through the UX stuff, check out the comps Matt Thomas mocked up last night (with absolutely no notice, for the record). Use the .psd as your base, and when it&#8217;s time to submit your ideas, make a .jpg or .png and post a link to it in the comments on this post. (Note: Only comments containing a link to a design submission using this format will be approved. For general discussion about this design challenge or any of the submissions, please head into the #wordpress-dev IRC channel.)</p>
<p>Submit the link to your comps by 1am Tuesday, April 28 UTC (7pm Monday, April 27, New York time). If you have questions or want early feedback, we&#8217;ll be in and out of the #wordpress-dev IRC channel between now and then.</p>
<p>Once we&#8217;ve received the submissions, we&#8217;ll post a voting survey (much simpler than the icon survey; this one will be more of poll, just choose the one you like best) as soon as possible, and will post the link to it here as soon as it&#8217;s online. We&#8217;ll only keep voting open for one day because of the 2.8 deadline, so put it on your calendar if you think you&#8217;ll forget. Voting will close at 2am Wednesday, April 29 UTC (8pm Tuesday, April 28, New York time). Results will be announced the following day.</p>

<p><span><em>* Chats above are a conglomeration of actual chats. </em></span></p>

<h4>ACT I</h4>
<p><strong>Jane:</strong> It is a thorn in my side that the blog name header is above the &#8220;dashboard&#8221; nav section in the admin, since in MU installations and with plugins (like stats), things in the Dashboard section span multiple blogs. Makes more sense for the header to head only the per-blog content area.</p>
<p><strong>Mark:</strong> I agree about the header. &#8220;This is the menu, this is the content.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>All: </strong>Yep.</p>
<p><span><em>Five minutes later&#8230;</em></span></p>
<p><strong>Mark: </strong>What do you guys this of this quick mockup I just did, playing with the admin header?<br />
<img src="http://wpdotorg.wordpress.com/files/2009/04/mark-mockup.png" alt="Mark Jaquith's mockup" />
</p>
<p><strong>Jane: </strong>I like it that the nav is not under the header. Might need some styling help. I was also thinking maybe the favorites menu should drop down into the white h2 area by screen options/help tabs.</p>
<p><strong>Ryan: </strong>Menu color to the top with blog title pushed over and favorites next to screen options sounds quite nice.</p>
<p><strong>Jane: </strong>I&#8217;ll ask Matt Thomas if he could style it <em>[ed. note: Matt Thomas created the visual style for 2.7]</em>, and we can see what people think, maybe post on <a href="http://wpdevel.wordpress.com/">wpdevel</a> for feedback.</p>
<p><strong>Ryan: </strong>If it&#8217;s quick, maybe we could even get it into 2.8.</p>
<h4>ACT II</h4>
<p><strong>Matt T: </strong>Here are some comps based on what you told me.</p>
<p><strong>Jane: </strong>Cool, but where are Screen Options and Help tabs?</p>
<p><strong>Matt T: </strong>Still working on that.</p>
<p><strong>Jane: </strong>Hm. Wonder if there&#8217;s time to open this up to community designers? I know we&#8217;re in freeze, and it&#8217;s no notice, but you didn&#8217;t get any notice either when we dropped this styling request on your lap a few hours ago. That&#8217;s the way open software development works: sometimes the best ideas come at the last minute!</p>
<p><strong>Matt T:</strong> I&#8217;m all for letting the community take a stab at it. Especially if they come up with something brilliant to do with the Screen Options and Help tabs.</p>
<p><strong>Jane: </strong>I&#8217;ll ask Ryan about release date and see if there&#8217;s time. I know they wanted your style recommendations today.</p>
<h4>Act III</h4>
<p><strong>Ryan: </strong>Tuesday is probably doable, no later than that for final delivery of style and any gradient graphics, etc.</p>
<p><strong>Jane: </strong>Awesome! People will hate me for the short notice after the has-patch marathon, but since it&#8217;s a small project and over the weekend, and wasn&#8217;t even something anyone was planning until a few hours ago, I&#8217;m <strong>*really hoping*</strong> people will take this for what it is, an attempt to give more people input into an upcoming visual change in the interface, even if it&#8217;s not a huge one.</p>
<p><strong>Ryan:</strong> Would have the benefit of warning people that header and menu will be changed a bit.</p>
<p><strong>Jane:</strong> And we can have a vote. If I can get all the materials together and post in the morning, that would give 2 days of design time for submissions on Monday, and if we do a day of voting Tuesday, that&#8217;s 3 days notice for the vote. I&#8217;ll make sure to post to all the lists, etc.</p>
<p><strong>Ryan: </strong>Will we announce with comps from Matt T as examples of what we&#8217;re thinking?</p>
<p><strong>Jane:</strong> I&#8217;ll write up the UX reasons for considering the change, and Matt T can provide some style guidelines and his original comps so no one will have to waste time mocking up the basic screen layout.</p>
<p><strong>Ryan:</strong> That would help set the scope. We just want tweaks here and there, given the timing.</p>
<p><strong>Jane: </strong>Woot!</p>
<p><strong>On Your Mark, Get Set&#8230;</strong><br />
Okay, so here&#8217;s the deal. Modifying the nav/header to be a little nicer is was a last-minute design idea, and if it can&#8217;t be worked out in the time we have left before 2.8 (which is very little), we&#8217;ll just wait until 2.9 to work on it. But! If someone comes up with something the community really likes and it doesn&#8217;t break any of the design guidelines for the rest of WordPress, we could sneak it in.</p>
<p><a href="http://wordpress.org/development/?page_id=661">UX and design guidelines for this mini-project are posted here</a> (so as not to clog up anyone&#8217;s feed reader with big graphics). Read through the UX stuff, check out the comps Matt Thomas mocked up last night (with absolutely no notice, for the record). Use the .psd as your base, and when it&#8217;s time to submit your ideas, make a .jpg or .png and post a link to it in the comments on this post. (Note: Only comments containing a link to a design submission using this format will be approved. For general discussion about this design challenge or any of the submissions, please head into the #wordpress-dev IRC channel.)</p>
<p>Submit the link to your comps by 1am Tuesday, April 28 UTC (7pm Monday, April 27, New York time). If you have questions or want early feedback, we&#8217;ll be in and out of the #wordpress-dev IRC channel between now and then.</p>
<p>Once we&#8217;ve received the submissions, we&#8217;ll post a voting survey (much simpler than the icon survey; this one will be more of poll, just choose the one you like best) as soon as possible, and will post the link to it here as soon as it&#8217;s online. We&#8217;ll only keep voting open for one day because of the 2.8 deadline, so put it on your calendar if you think you&#8217;ll forget. Voting will close at 2am Wednesday, April 29 UTC (8pm Tuesday, April 28, New York time). Results will be announced the following day.</p>

<p><a href="http://www.killertechtips.com/2009/04/16/three-tools-to-track-and-defeat-content-theft/">3 tools to track and defeat content theft</a> lists three tools available to counteract content theft from your blog. This has become even more of an issue of late with the economy in the lurch, more people are jumping on the blogging bandwagon looking to make some extra money and might not be aware of copyright and Intellectual Property laws. The last tool listed is <a href="http://tynt.com/">Tynt Tracer</a> and I have been uysing it for a while. Tracer tracks and lists all the browser actions performed by visitors such as selecting and copying text and then uses Javascript to add a small link back to the original content if it is pasted onto another webpage somewhere. This method of tracking information copying is not really very effective, especially in this automated world of scrapers. While the information provided is interesting, it turns out to be a little useless if your content is <em>not</em> ruled by the lure of SEO but by your desire to just write and disseminate information. I still find myself checking back with the Tynt admin interface once in a while to see which topics seem to be more Search Engine popular this week.</p>
