Blogging platforms

– WordPress vs. Typepad
– WINNER: WordPress, 2714 votes (Typepad: 267 votes, Tie: 357 votes)

If you are trying to decide which platform to go for then read this on the mashable site for WordPress v’s Typepad. I did recently have to post something to Typepad and cringe – it was not intuitive – clunky in other words, but i had to do it for Liverpool’s Global ignite week – Have a look. It’s an exciting event but at the same time if you want to find out real information about it then go to the How-why-diy Ning

So always go for wordpress.

Art in Liverpool podcast

This is what i get up to with www.artinliverpool.com – Liverpool’s premier artistic resource on Merseyside.  We do a weekly (mostly) podcast about what is going on in the arts visual mostly) in Liverpool.

My reason for posting is to check soundcloud’s plugin compatibility with wordpress so as to examine other options for publishing sound in a social media world.

The podcast itself has been described as “quite good” by one twittering friend who I shall remain nameless.
