Testing the Postie plugin
*update*
New Plugin! Postie
Blog updates was one thing I wanted to use Twitter for. However, when I enabled the tool that would do a blog post the Twitter plugin went a little schitz. WP has an email-post function, but it required manual action to get the post to show. Not interested in that. If I wanted to manually update after an email post then I would just manually post! After periodic searches and a solid hour of wasted time (it took me that long to give in and read the instructions) I installed, activated, and configured Postie. I like it. Perfect for techno geeks like me! If you choose to play with Postie I recommend that you read the instructions FIRST. That whole part about creating two new folders in your WP directory…yeah, he meant that. It has to be done or the plugin won’t work. Simple to install (if you follow directions) and simple to use. Make sure the email addy you use is secure. Kind of an important point if you don’t want some twit posting to your blog for kicks and giggles.
A robot girlfriend???
Dude has issues. Step away from your computer. Step into the real world. You know, I have a student or two that would think this is the ultimate. I’m sorry, I think it’s weird. Not so much the robot part as the fact that he took the time to include sensors in various areas. 33 yo guy wonders why he can’t find the perfect woman, mmmm….mystery solved. Techno geek qualities aside, it could be the fact that his perfect woman is Aiko who he describes, “Aiko doesn’t need holidays, food or rest, and will work almost 24 hours a day. She is the perfect woman.” Wow, even his robot has that WTH? look down.
