This WordPress plugin allows you to use Amazon’s Simple Storage Service to host your media for your WordPress powered blog. Amazon S3 is a cheap and cost effective way to scale your site to easily handle large spikes in traffic (such as from Digg) without having to go through the expense of setting up the infrastructure for a content delivery network. Startup companies are embracing it for their online storage solution , and even bloggers are starting to use it to host their images and other static media (such as mp3 files for their podcasts). Pricing is really cheap. There are no setup fees, no minimum costs, and you literally only pay for what you use, even if it’s just a couple cents a month. http://tantannoodles.com/toolkit/wordpress-s3/

Posted by Leonid Mamchenkov on August 7, 2007 One of the first things that you probably check right after upgrade to a new WordPress version is the Options menu in the administration interface. Is there something new? Are there more ways that WordPress can be tweaked and tuned now?

webapp framework. More than a blogging engine. More than a CMS.

I’ll try to keep this post as non-technical as possible for the benefit of the general public. The main goal of the article is to show why and how WordPress is more than just a blogging engine or a content management system (CMS). WordPress is a web application framework. First, let’s see Wikipedia definition of “Software framework” : A software framework is a reusable design for a software system (or subsystem). This is expressed as a set of abstract classes and the way their instances collaborate for a specific type of software (Johnson and Foote 1988; Deutsch 1989). http://wpbits.wordpress.com/2007/06/18/wordpress-webapp-framework-more-than-a-blogging-engine-more-than-a-cms/

Be Lucky I’m increasingly becoming aware that despite the many hours of hard work that I’ve put into building up my business that many others work just as hard and are much more talented than I am but do not enjoy the success that I’ve been fortunate to have. While I don’t believe that luck is the main ingredient in my own story I am convinced that in combination with some of the other things I’ll talk about below it has been of real importance. The luck I’ve had along the way has included just happening to bump into the right people at the right time (on many occasions), discovering ad systems that just happened to work well on my blogs, starting successful blogs quite by accident, getting links from bigger blogs that led to a snowball effect of incoming links from elsewhere through to choosing the right partners for different projects. I could write many thousands of words on the luck I’ve had but I’ll not bore you with the details except to say that I’ve been a lucky boy.

Get Your Blog Noticed!

Last August I began a serious effort to try to increase the traffic to my blog, after switching from Radio (where it had been for three years) to WordPress. Since then, I've gone from an average of 216 visitors per day, to 3400. March was the first month I had more than 100,000 visits, and over a half million hits.
