Post-conference brunch with the gang at Sel de la Terre in Boston.
Lead by the ever entrepreneurial Will Davis, the Bangor Daily News made a complete switch to WordPress.
To get out of the city for Memorial Day weekend, Albert and I found cheap tickets (~$200/roundtrip) on JetBlue and flew up to Maine to meet up with Will for three days of hiking. It was epic.
Finally on board an hour and a half late JetBlue flight to Portland (Maine) for a weekend of hiking with Albert and Will. Stoked. 10:08 pm: They kicked us off the first plane because of “… maintenance … weather …”. Back to waiting at the gate.
Andrew Nacin and Marc Lavallee led a 2 pm session on advanced WordPress development. It was mostly a free-form conversation about the use of WordPress in newsrooms.
Zone Manager (Zoninator). New plugin by Will Davis and Mo Jangda lets you create content zones, and add and move around arbitrary content in them. Highly useful for news organizations wanting editorial control over how their content appears on the homepage.
freze.it. Will’s new URL shortener saves a copy of any web page the moment you create the URL.
