Simon’s Everything You Wanted to Know But Were Afraid To Ask attempts to be a complete round up of essential and practical blogging knowledge.

There are obvious contradictions: Be Original(#19) Vs. Plagiarism is Encouraged(#22), but he probably does not expect to be taken seriously(#4).

All said, I spent a long time following the links at the end of the post. Just what you need for a perfect weekend — a long article, and a lot of links that lets you waste more of your time reading up on how to waste time efficiently and effectively

Happy reading!

On a side note, I tried to donate myself some money, just to test if everything is working fine, and also to see if I can give myself 2 cents , but Paypal told me,”You cannot email money to yourself. Please enter another user’s email address if you would like to send money to someone.”

Now that Matt is talking about moving to subversion, The Top Ten Subversion Tips for CVS Users will be useful for many WordPress users who develop plugins and like to see what’s new in the source, first hand. The article’s author Brian Fitzpatrick is the author of Version Control with Subversion
