Is A Part Of
So the New! and Improved! WordPress 2.7 and its let’s-just-try-to-forget-2.5-ever-existed administrative interface has been unleashed to the WordPress.com community, while we rugged individualists who use the software package on our standalone installations have to wait a few more days. Jealous? Not me, because I upgraded when it was in early Beta, with the secret intent to blame WordPress whenever my own work on the back end of this site went all pear-shaped, knackered, mucked, munted, nicked, naused up, cocked up, ballsed up, packed up, tits-up, casters-up, humpty dumpty, bollocksed, bollixed, bost, buggered, banjaxed, cattled, conked, clapped out, come a cropper, demic, dished, duff, up the pictures or gone for a burton [the UK has so many more slang terms for "broken" than the USA that don't involve the f-word or obvious euphemisms for it].
Anyway, this provides a brief window of opportunity while the WP.com bloggers are adjusting to the new stuff (which, while awesome, still has a learning curve) or are just staring at their computer screens going “wow”, for the rest of the blogosphere to post massive amounts of cool content in the hope that the notoriously short-attention-spanned Web will forget the blogs currently in mid-upgrade.
So, I should also be blogging like an instapundit (just without the low-grade dittoheadedness), but I have discovered something new on the Web that has me awed and agape. It’s called “Is It Funny Today?” and at first stare, it looks like it’s going to change the way you read webcomics, especially if you, like me, read a lot of them, and will probably kill the already-unhealthy genre of webcomic criticism blogs. Which makes me glad I stopped updating the Funny Paperless when I did (although my next over-ambitious project will be webcomics-related in a muddled mix with other things… I’m just relieved I won’t be directly competing with that.)
Speaking of webcomics, I’ll have another Photoslop appearing as a “guest comic” in less than 24 hours. This has been an official teaser. Do you feel teased?
Your Turn...
