WordPress plugins for a new blog

By Wesley Fryer On May 28, 2009 · · 1 Comment

I setup a new WordPress blog today for a writing project, and used the following plug-ins. My somewhat out-of-date list of WordPress plug-ins I’m using here “Moving at the Speed of Creativity” is available on my about page.

In hunting around for a new simple, WordPress theme, I stumbled onto Barthelme, which was created by Scott Wallick. Scott is also the author of the veryplaintxt theme, used by Doug Noon. This string of discoveries reminds me of a quotation shared today by Doug Johnson:

I find that a great part of the information I have was acquired by looking up something and finding something else on the way. Franklin P. Adams US journalist (1881 – 1960)

Between Twitter and Google Reader, it’s amazing where incidental learning can lead. 🙂
