Posted in wordpress, December 19th, 2008 | Comment »

After was released 2.7RC1 build at December 1st, I wasn’t hurry to take it. WordPress wasn’t strongly pushing It as well. But soon were released 2.7RC2 and the final stabile 2.7 called “Coltrane”.

  1. New better looking theme then the default one.
  2. SEO related stuff like adding rel=nofollow to links for categories, tags, comments and “read more” links - to all content that is restricted to index by robots.txt or links, that don’t bring value for Google (anchor to comments , “Read the rest of this entry” and feeds.)

There are a lot of things still to be done in my blog so I continue to blog in WorrdPress setup category.

LCD LED backlight / backlit or CCFL?

Posted in Technology, November 29th, 2008 | Comment »

After I wrote about SSD storage drives must say some words about new generation LCD monitors that are back lighted by LED instead of CCFL. It’s really important to know the difference between these two kinds.

Apple calls it LED-backlit, Dell simply WLED. Not sure for what reason, but the words stands for the same meaning - backlighting.

Posted in Technology, November 28th, 2008 | 1 Comment »

Decided to start a series of some IT related articles that will be based on new tendencies and what’s new should be noticed in the market. Main focus will be on laptops probably and everything what may be connected to them.
