There’s just one thing that’s not working – the Shared news panel in the sidebar. I can’t see why not, so I’m assuming it’s a feed problem, at least until tomorrow.

Hopefully not too long.

We ended up talking about how sometimes the SEO copywriter ends up working on much less promising material than our advertising cousins.

The following post attempts to make sense of of what we covered in that discussion. I’ve been tweaking it on and off for several weeks, but I’ve never been totally happy with its clarity.

Today is the last day of the month, so to hell with it. I’m going to press the button and publish.

Let me know what you think.

It’s a good idea, as long as the quality doesn’t falter, of course

I’ve just failed to post for almost a whole month owing to extreme busyness. My apologies.

Let’s hope I can get properly back on stream again.

Looking back today, it seems it was anything but OK. WP and K2 are just not playing nicely together. Bluntly, I wish the guys at K2 would get their act together and upgrade their theme properly so it works with the latest version of WordPress – the kludge plug-in doesn’t override WordPress widgets as advertised. In fact, it’s looking like it’s time to jump ship and find a less problematic theme for this blog.

My apologies for the lack of links and questionable usability this week.

Over the next few days, I’ll be getting Dangerous Thinking back to where it should be, as I adapt my sidebar content to WordPress widgets.

Content is unaffected, of course ;-)

Dangerous Thinking wasn’t happy at its old home and I couldn’t fix the problems, so I’m biting the bullet and moving it on to WordPress. Here I can fix problems, or I certainly know a man who can :-)

Paul Silver, Web Positioning Centre’s Head of Technical SEO, is currently doing some stuff that I don’t begin to understand (maybe he’ll be able to explain at our meeting this afternoon), and I want to make some changes – both cosmetic (ie not the default template) and technical (finding the right plug-ins for what I want to do) – so I guess it’ll be around a week before normal service is resumed.
