fMoblog – My first WordPress plugin
fMoblog is a plugin for WordPress 1.5.x which enables the user to post pictures and a description from a cell phone. Pictures can also be uploaded by email. The pictures apperar as a gallery with clickable thumbnails and is sorted monthly. You can view my example here.
You can either post from your cell phone as an email with the picture attached or from your regular email.
Simply attach the picture and write as subject the title for the picture.
Send and the next time the page is shown the emailed pictures will apperar. It’s easy to change the layout of the picture gallery since it’s css-based.
This is my first plugin and I hope I can find the time to write some more.
Studio 8 is released
Finally Macromedia has released the Studio 8 suite for web developing. So why don’t you go grab some trials download or just buy the darn thing. I have just downloaded it and will try it for 30 days and see if it’s worth buying. The first thing I notice are the new interface for editing stylsheets and the new and improved logo.
It also fetaures a new zoom tool where you can zoom in on your layout for exact positioning and formatting. And code collapsing which enables you to hide certain block of code to make it more easy to overlook. A new toolbar with the most used tools ala Photoshop style. Color coding css blocks which makes it easier to movo to css based layout from table based. More will follow when I have tested it for a while.
AdSense trouble solved
Yesterday I was about to set up AdSense for this site when I got a mail from Google saying that I was using one of their brand names on this site. I search and looked if I could find any but i coudn’t. However I mailed back to Google and explained that I thought it was a misunderstanding and I was put under a new review, and this time my site comply to Google’s policy. I just can’t see where the brand name would have been under the first review.
Luckily it was a misunderstanding and I finally got the AdSense working. Google surley did answer my mails vey quickly and for that I am thankful.

My first Texas hold ‘em
Today I played my first Texas hold ‘em poker game at my brother in law. The other guys had played for a while and I sure felt like the rookie I was. We played three games and I actually won it all at the last game. It wasn’t a lot of money involved so no one left the game too poor.
It was fun and I will surley play this game again. Since I won the first time I will probably never win again. But it is not the game or the money that’s important, it’s beeing around friends having fun.
