January SF Wordpress meetup

Here’s a pic from the unoffical San Francisco Wordpress meetup with happened this afternoon.

Over at PressThink, a guest-written article entitled The Importance of Being Permanent is very good.

I think this is one of the biggest failings in many online newspapers- they’re not permanent and as this article says, that makes them less valuable. Just remember cool uris never change.

As a sidenote, this reminds me of a gripe I have with the otherwise wonderful WordPress. You’ll notice that the URIs for my blog posts contain the date the piece was posted. If I edit the post, the new publish date is used, not the original. This breaks the idea of permalinks.

Maybe I’ll ask the Matt about this this afternoon at the unoffical WordPress meetup.
