WordCamp:Las Vegas, January 10-11, 2009

Last month I was really bummed out when I wasn't able to attend WordCamp:San Francisco. I've been using WordPress for a number of years and have always told anybody who would listen that if they plan on blogging, WordPress is the way to go. Last month's wasn't the first WordCamp I had heard about, but…

Fixing the WordPress login issue

As I mentioned in yesterday's post, I was having some big troubles with some of my blogs. There was a bug in WordPress version 2.6.1 that was allowing crafty hackers to create a user account in your log and then with a well written piece of code, they could force a reset of the admin…
