IdGettr — Find your Flickr ID

Use the URL of your photostream to find the Flickr ID number (also works for groups). Flickr is a truly fantastic resource. Whether you're in the business of web design and need to find images for a new page, or you're simply trying to share your photography with the world, Flickr has something for everyone. One of the most common uses of Flickr is sourcing images under a Creative Commons license - if you're getting started on a new site or project, you're going to need some pictures. One very easy way of setting your site apart from the rest is to take fifteen minutes and track down some high quality original pictures and photographs to use on your site in place of boring stock images. Putting in this little bit of extra effort when you're structuring a new website can pay off handsomely down the road. At WebFX, we aim to make the entire Flickr process easier by providing this simple account ID lookup tool. This tool is maintained by WebFX.

I use this simple technique to try to make errors a bit more and helpful for people who have ended up at the wrong place. I’m hoping that not too many people see the 404 page but just in case here is what I’ve done. Basically I duplicate a normal page template and name it “404.php”. I then remove “the loop” and add some some static code which explains that there has been an error and a few possible solutions (archives, search).

WordPress plugin: What Would Seth Godin Do Seth Godin advocates using cookies to distinguish between new and returning visitors to your site: One opportunity that’s underused is the idea of using cookies to treat returning visitors differently than newbies. It’s more work at first, but it can offer two experiences to two different sorts of people. (Source: In the Middle, Starting) I built this WordPress plugin to implement Seth Godin’s idea. For WordPress users it reduces the “work at first” to almost nothing.

Installing/Updating WordPress with Subversion Installing/Updating WordPress with Subversion Languages: English • 日本語 • (Add your language) If you have command-line access to your web server, and if your server has a Subversion (svn) client installed, you can use Subversion to install and update WordPress. Although SubVersion is mostly a software developers' tool, non-developers can also use it to install and upgrade WordPress. Some people consider this to be much easier than following the standard WordPress installation and upgrade methods (downloading and unzipping archives, then using FTP to put them on your web host), and this article explains how to do it.
