  • The Tim Ferriss Show Transcripts Episode 61: Matt Mullenweg Show Notes and Links at Tim.Blog/Podcast
    The Tim Ferriss Show Transcripts Episode 61: Matt Mullenweg Show notes and links at tim.blog/podcast Tim: Quick sound test. This is transition from tea to tequila. How do you feel about that decision? Matt: I'm pretty excited. Tim: And off we go. [Audio plays] Tim: Hello, boys and girls. This is Tim Ferriss. And welcome to another episode of the Tim Ferriss show, where I interview some of the world’s top performers, whether that be in investing, sports, entrepreneurship or otherwise; film, art, you name it to extract the tools and resources and habits and routines that you can use. And in this episode, I have the pleasure, in beautiful San Francisco, to interview and icon of tech. But you do not have to be involved in tech – or even understand tech – to get a lot out of this conversation. Matt Mullenweg is one of my close friends. He’s been named one of PC World’s top 50 on the web, Ink.com’s 30 under 30, and Business Week’s 25 Most Influential People on the Web. Why, you might ask, has he received all these accolades? Well, he’s a young guy but he is best known as a founding developer of WordPress, the open-source software that powers more than 22 percent of the entire web. It’s huge. He’s also the CEO of Automattic, which is valued at more than $1 billion and has a fully distributed team of hundreds of employees around the world. However, Matt started off as a barbecue shopping Texas boy.

  • Blogging for Engines
    BLOGGING FOR ENGINES Blogs under the Influence of Software-Engine Relations Name: Anne Helmond Student number: 0449458 E-mail: [email protected] Blog: http://www.annehelmond.nl Date: January 28, 2008 Supervisor: Geert Lovink Secondary reader: Richard Rogers Institution: University of Amsterdam Department: Media Studies (New Media) Keywords Blog Software, Blog Engines, Blogosphere, Software Studies, WordPress Summary This thesis proposes to add the study of software-engine relations to the emerging field of software studies, which may open up a new avenue in the field by accounting for the increasing entanglement of the engines with software thus further shaping the field. The increasingly symbiotic relationship between the blogger, blog software and blog engines needs to be addressed in order to be able to describe a current account of blogging. The daily blogging routine shows that it is undesirable to exclude the engines from research on the phenomenon of blogs. The practice of blogging cannot be isolated from the software blogs are created with and the engines that index blogs and construct a searchable blogosphere. The software-engine relations should be studied together as they are co-constructed. In order to describe the software-engine relations the most prevailing standalone blog software, WordPress, has been used for a period of over seventeen months. By looking into the underlying standards and protocols of the canonical features of the blog it becomes clear how the blog software disperses and syndicates the blog and connects it to the engines. Blog standards have also enable the engines to construct a blogosphere in which the bloggers are subject to a software-engine regime.

  • VS-1048 Certified Wordpress Developer Sample Material
    Certified WordPress Developer Sample Material VS-1048 Certified WordPress Developer 1. CMS AND WORDPRESS BA SICS WordPress is a free and open-source content management system (CMS) based on PHP and MySQL. 1.1. What is a "blog "Blog" is an abbreviated version of "weblog," which is a term used to describe websites that maintain an ongoing chronicle of information. A blog features diary-type commentary and links to articles on other websites, usually presented as a list of entries in reverse chronological order. Blogs range from the personal to the political, and can focus on one narrow subject or a whole range of subjects. Many blogs focus on a particular topic, such as web design, home staging, sports, or mobile technology. Some are more eclectic, presenting links to all types of other sites. And others are more like personal journals, presenting the author's daily life and thoughts. Generally speaking (although there are exceptions), blogs tend to have a few things in common: V A main content area with articles listed chronologically, newest on top. Often, the articles are organized into categories. V An archive of older articles. V A way for people to leave comments about the articles. V A list of links to other related sites, sometimes called a "blogroll". V One or more "feeds" like RSS, Atom or RDF files. Some blogs may have additional features beyond these. Watch this short video for a simple explanation for what a blog is. www.vskills.in Page 2 Certified WordPress Developer Blogger A blogger is a person who owns or runs a blog or a person who maintains the blog.

  • Sponsorship Offer RIGHT NOW, AS YOU’RE BROWSING the INTERNET, ONE out of EVERY FOUR SITES IS USING WORDPRESS
    Sponsorship offer RIGHT NOW, AS YOU’RE BROWSING THE INTERNET, ONE OUT OF EVERY FOUR SITES IS USING WORDPRESS. In 2003 Matt Mullenweg and Mike Little decided to fork b2, the blogging software created by Frenchman Michel Valdrighi, and run with it. WordPress is born! Twelve years later, this software has become the most popular web publication platform in the world, and WordPress has stayed true to its philsophy: making web publishing accessible to all. Now a powerful content management system running 25% of all websites in the world, who would have predicted such incredible growth from “simple blogging software”? Today WordPress can be found in universities, the media, big enterprise and institutions. It’s also at the foundation of startups, SaaS models, hosting services and specialized agencies. It attracts people with its robustness, state of constant evolution and the ease of use for which it’s known. More recently, WordPress has conquered the areas of social networking and e-commerce with BuddyPress and WooCommerce, currently the e-commerce solution with the most rapid growth anywhere. But did you know that WordPress is also an open source project, maintained by a community of contributors spread out over the globe? Thousands of people contribute daily to its upkeep and development, to creating plugins (over 40,000 registered), themes and writing documentation. This community is comprised of a range of actors from the WordPress ecosystem, from simple amateurs to seasoned professionals, who gather regularly around the world at events we call WordCamps. There have been over 80 in 2015. On February 5-6, 2016, Paris, the pioneer city of such events in France, invites you to join the 9th edition of its WordCamp, which will take place in an exceptional venue tucked in-between the Statue of Liberty and the Eiffel Tower.

A great fallacy born from the failure to studymaterial culturereserved is the assumption that you can take a practice from one culture and simply jam it into another and expect similar results.

  • Copyrighted Material What Is Wordpress?
    1 First Post WHAT’S IN THIS CHAPTER? ➤ Appreciating the provenance of the WordPress platform ➤ Choosing a suitable platform for your WordPress installation ➤ Downloading, installing, and performing basic configuration of WordPress ➤ Diagnosing and resolving common installation problems If displaying ‘‘Hello World’’ on an appropriate device defines minimum competence in a pro- gramming language, generating your first post is the equivalent in the blogging world. This chapter provides a brief history of WordPress and then explores several options for hosting a WordPress installation. Common miscues and misperceptions along with their resolutions round out the chapter and put you on the edge of publishing your wit and wisdom. Once you’ve installed, configured, and completed the bare-bones administration, you’re ready to take advantage of the code walkthroughs and detailed component descriptions in later chap- ters. Of course, if you already have a functional WordPress blog, you can skip this chapter and dive head-first into the Dashboard control wonderland in Chapter 2, ‘‘Functional Overview.’’ COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL WHAT IS WORDPRESS? WordPress is one of the most popular open source blogging systems available, with global and vibrant user, developer, and support communities. Though it can be compared to TypePad, Moveable Type, Google’s Blogger, and the Apache Roller project as a user-generated content workhorse, WordPress distinguishes itself with a broad array of hosting options, functional extensions (plugins), and aesthetic designs and elements (themes). With the rise of self-publishing, low-cost web hosting and freely available core components like the MySQL database, blogging software followed the same trend as most other digital technologies, moving from high-end, high-cost products to widely available, low-cost consumer or ‘‘hobbyist’’ systems.
