Introducing WordPress for BlackBerry 1.0
By Bitwik on February 25th, 2010 | 1 Comment
WordPress has finally released its application for BlackBerry users. With the WordPress for BlackBerry users can edit and manipulate their WordPress blogs on the fly. Although the app is lightweight it is packed full of features that are essential for WordPress powered blogs. For example, you can now write, edit, add rich media and manage the conversation with ease from any model of BlackBerry phone. The WordPress for BlackBerry allows you to add as many WordPress blog accounts as you wish. Adding links from the BlackBerry is now easier than ever due to the “link assistant” which dramatically speeds up the process.

By Bitwik on December 23rd, 2009 | No Comments
As we near the original release date of Movable Type 5, we are sorry to announce that the date has been pushed back to January 5th 2010. We know this may cause an inconvenience to those that are waiting to release their sites til after the new release. However, those at Movable Type are telling us that it is for a very good reason that they have postponed the release. It turns out that there’s a few bugs that need to be ironed out in order to make MT5 production grade for all users.
Some MT5 fans have been a little agitated by the delay, saying that it would’ve been better to not announce a release date and then put it off. Although true that it is a tad frustrating, the developers have every intention on making this release unlike any other. They also tell us that there are many features that are gong to be included in MT5 that will make this “delay” a thing of the past, not to be remembered. So, let’s patiently await the release of MT5 and all of it’s features, which is scheduled to launch on January 5th 2010.
WordPress 2.9 will be here soon!
By Bitwik on December 18th, 2009 | No Comments
We are just as excited as you are about the upcoming updates to one of the most popular blog platforms. With WordPress 2.9 you will find new feature such as “trash” for comments, posts, and so on. This means that it’s possible to recover elements that have been deleted until the admin permanently deletes them.
WordPress 2.9 also sports image editing, a new release of TinyMCE, and improvements in media embedding. Comments for pages have been added to the default “Kubrick” theme, so blogs can now have comments on pages as well as posts. When setting up new blogs, the default first post will be more informative about how to use WordPress as opposed to the old-style “Hello World” post which gave you no information on how to use WordPress. This feature is great for those that are very new to the platform or are just getting started with blogs in general.
