As some of you may have already known, On 5th of june, I have done with my exams and from then, vacations have been started. But after that, I was busy in some personal work and also on organizing a plan to enjoy the vacation to its fullest. At now, I am feeling much lighter as I have come out of mentally tough times…..and for the blogging….as soon as I will finish some of my remaining work…I will resume to do it regularly.

Tons Of Spam But Thanks To Akismet!

April 3rd, 2008 | 2 Comments | Posted in Blogging

Nowadays I am very busy in preparation for my upcoming exams and have not been able to post since about a week and in my absence, the spammers got also busy targeting this blog with their bull***t and useless comments and trackbacks, I was getting almost 50-100 spam comments a day. Today, it has broken all the previous records by spamming near to 500 comments, which is I think enough to ruin my blog reputation. I had activated akismet from the very first day, and for this all I can say to akismet is, you saved my blog, I love you!
If you blog and don’t have akismet yet, why not grab to be on the safe side like I did?

If you are a newcomer in this game which we call blogging, you may also facing the same problem. Now you don’t need to be worried of it as I have found some informative yet easy to understand videos which will explain some of these terms in really ‘Plain English’. These are:

P.S. Although this post is especially for novice bloggers, if you are a not so novice blogger or not a blogger at all, it will also benefit you to some extent in either case.

Fluency Administration Theme: Say Bye To The Old Dashboard

March 15th, 2008 | 3 Comments | Posted in Blogging

If you are a wordpress blogger, then chances are that you may have also been tired of seeing that old light and dark bluish dashboard everytime you login to your wordpress account. Yes? Then why not change it with the new fluency theme designed by DeanJRobinson, a web developer at University Of Newcastle, Australia. With the Grayscale Color Scheme, this theme gives me some decent feel and change and I hope you will also like this as it is a unique approach, just take a test drive!It installs just like any other plugin i.e. download, then unzip it, a folder will appear where you unzipped the plugin, paste this folder in the /wp-content/plugins folder in your FTP Account, and finally activate it from the plugins list under wp-admin.

If you have any questions and queries regarding fluency, contact the official support forum.
