Yes - unless more recent versions of WordPress have added table support in the WYSIWYG editor.

What is say is all very true. So true in fact, you wonder why Disqus can't implement those heuristics into their anti-spam measures. If a spammer leaves identical comments on N different blogs within the last N hours then clearly that is spam.

Re: how I ditched Windows and embraced Gloria - Blog in isolation

I'll be posting more about my day to day experiences with Mint. After all, the courtship and first date is one thing but there's simply no substitute for living with someone for a whole week.

I was pleasantly surprised about how much of Mint just worked out of the box. I guess the only installation steps that might intimidate newcomers is 'Partition Disks' but you get that if you are installing Windows.

Thanks for being the freedom loving angel perched on my left shoulder responsible for these voices in my head :-)

Yes, reactions does work with shortened URLs. There is a current bug where reactions won't show if you change your article permalink. We're working on fixing this.

Re: how I ditched iTunes and started living with Foobar 2000 - Blog in isolation

andycowl — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 05:57:34 -0000

With FB2K or Icecast ? Remember - you don't actually need a reason to play with technology - it's just fun.

For example, yesterday I spontaneously decided to ditch Windows and am now running Linux on my home PC. This means all that hard work with Foobar wil be for nothing. But still, it was fun :-)

andycowl — Mon, 12 Oct 2009 10:03:50 -0000

Steve. No direct experience but this Foobar component might be useful.

I have also heard good reports about Icecast.

Let us know how it works out.
