Get better search by writing content that people actually want to read #wordpress cc/ @bgardner #

Argo uses Custom taxonomies and custom menus for the featured posts and "Don't Miss" navigation #wordpress #hhdc #
They also built there own Custom Walkers #hhdc cc/ @nacin #
@bgardner I didn't want this to be a throwdown, I just find to much emphasis is placed on 'magic tools', when in actuality content is king. in reply to bgardner #
@bgardner As long as they are use a theme (like genesis ) that puts content in the proper order, there doesn't need to be optimization. in reply to bgardner #
Waiting for Jobs to say that they won't let users install apps that Apple hasn't approved of in Lion. #apple #

Besides protovis, does anyone know of a javascript based charting library that also builds Maps / Geo-charts? #dataviz #lazytweet #
@kingkool68 I've looked at it, but it means either using flash or having completely static charts w/o useful tooltips in reply to kingkool68 #
I should have been more specific. I'm looking for Flash Free output cc/ @ozh @kingkool68 #

@marcymarcy Prepaid hours were based on having a large backlog and doing sprints. Not maintenance cc: @andrea_r in reply to marcymarcy #
@marcymarcy Operations and development were kept completely separate. in reply to marcymarcy #
It looks like @nacin and @darylkoop are speaking at the same time at #wcnyc #sadpanda #
As will I RT @sivel: @nacin @darylkoop and myself will be around to help you hack RT @janeforshort: Hacker Room #wcnyc http://bit.ly/cSO7VW #
@ryancduff According to @nacin, it's all taken care of. #PutThePandaAway cc: @darylkoop #

@gegere Yes. Speaking on Documentation in reply to gegere #
I'm not the asshole for a change RT @nacin: OH: "I don't think we've met." / "We have." / "Well then, I'm an asshole." #wcnyc #
Had a fun time with @jjj @nacin @sivel @darylkoop and others tonight. Now it's time to work on my slides for #wcnyc #
@petemall Lets be honest. #blamenacin #
@calinative Sleep is overrated. Especially since @janeforshort said there will be coffee in the morning. #wcnyc in reply to calinative #
@janeforshort gotcha. I think you know who I'll blame anyways if it's not there. in reply to janeforshort #
I can't #blamenacin yet. I need my slides spell / grammar checked first. Ping @nacin cc/ @johnjamesjacoby @janeforshort #
Completely ran through my 5 minute lighting speech for the first time. It took 10:42. Time to start chopping. #wcnyc #
@nacin Got it down to 5:30 and have time to cut it that last bit, so you can leave the hook at the Apollo Sandman. in reply to nacin #
Eating then heading to #wcnyc I'm in the red bow tie and a grey w/purple sweater vest. Come say hi when you see me #
Slides from my lightening speech are available at http://aaron.jorb.in/slides/wcnyc.short.php #wcnyc #
@shaynesanderson Welcome. Took you long enough in reply to shaynesanderson #
I completely disagree with this speaker. If you are learning to develop themes, Child Themes are the easiest route by far #wcnyc #
@amandafrench Absolutely! You learn more by reading good code then trying to write it yourself. Good devs borrow, Great devs steal #wcnyc in reply to amandafrench #
@kchrist Just because you call yourself a dev doesn't mean you know what you are doing. Child themes allow you to make fewer mistakes #
@CircleReader Like @nacin, I began dev'ing before child themes existed. Now I can't imagine dev'ing 99% of sites any other way #wcnyc in reply to CircleReader #
@kchrist I disagree on that regard. Contributing to one of the community developed themes such as thematic should be the next step. DRY in reply to kchrist #
@kchrist Make the OSS do what you need it do. Contribute, don't compete. If you're building from scratch, you're wasting client $$$ in reply to kchrist #
@CircleReader It's not just about learning, but about doing it the right way. Is learning how to do it wrong ever the right way? cc @nacin in reply to CircleReader #
@kchrist In the long run? I seriously doubt it. in reply to kchrist #
I really hope @saracannon talks about how great Comic Sans is! #wcnyc #
@kchrist Then it completely makes sense to use child themes. It means you never have to write new php/html and only need to write the css. in reply to kchrist #
Snuck my head into @iamjohnford talking about Security. I think I'm going to go see @saracannon for a moment next. #
I hope my presentation helped with understanding PHPDoc and PHPXref. Slides are at: http://aaron.jorb.in/slides/wcnyc.long.php #
I hope my presentation helped you learn about PHPdoc and PHPXref. Slides at http://aaron.jorb.in/slides/wcnyc.long.php #wcnyc #

I'm excited to learn some magic, I mean javascript, from @darylkoop #wcnyc #
List of Default Scripts that WordPress ships with: http://jorb.in/14 #wcnyc #
from @darylkoop: In Javascript you can use (function(){ do_something})(); to have a function run on it's own. #wcnyc #
@nacin Damn Straight. I LOVE me some Comic Sans. I'm also anti helvetica. #wcnyc /cc @saracannon in reply to nacin #

@shaynesanderson Safe travels. As always it was great to see you. See you in 2011 and have fun at #wclv #wcnyc in reply to shaynesanderson #
@nacin I think the bikeshed should be Red cc/@amandamccormick #wcnyc in reply to nacin #
@nacin Perhaps we should just have an option for the bikeshed color? cc/ @janeforshort @jeremyclarke in reply to nacin #
@viviane212 Tomorrows unconference will be a great example of the audience sharing information. #wcnyc in reply to viviane212 #
Fun night at the #wcnyc after party and speakers dinner with @iamjohnford, @nacin, @saracannon, @darylkoop, @janeforshort, and many others. #
Hanging out at the Genius Bar with @designsimply, @iamjohnford, @bazza and others. Do you have a question or problem? Come ask! #wcnyc #
@shaynesanderson You're contributing to giving someone a better WordPress experience. That always counts! in reply to shaynesanderson #
Great Backpress chat before. http://backpress.org/ has the info to get you using it. #wcnyc #
Hacking on wp_quickpress_form. #
@RickWolff I disagree. It still only takes 5 minutes to go from nothing to creating content. in reply to RickWolff #
@RickWolff If you want any software to bend to your whim it's going to take time or money in reply to RickWolff #
After such a great #wcnyc the only thing I can say is #thanksJane and #thanksSteve #
@ozh I #blamenacin for any sort of lack of success that #thanksjane has in reply to ozh #
No wifi on the bus. That puts a damper on some of my plans. #

@JohnPBloch I agree with you on that one. TARP was a horrible idea. in reply to JohnPBloch #
@JohnPBloch I agree. We need to eliminate the "Just say NO!" club that doesn't want to try and innovate. in reply to JohnPBloch #
@SandyS1 If that's what her doctors and she decided, I would love for my tax dollars wasted on wars and helicopters to go for that instead. in reply to SandyS1 #
@JohnPBloch We should continue this conversation with barley and hops. in reply to JohnPBloch #
@SandyS1 I prefer butter to guns in reply to SandyS1 #
Off to Rustico for Happy Hour with my now former Co-workers. It's been fun. #

I'm going to build a child theme at #wcpdx during my speech. Should it be twenty ten or thematic based? Something else? #
@shaynesanderson That's my initial thought as well. Thematic would allow for some cooler stuff though, which is why I'm torn. in reply to shaynesanderson #
@markmcwilliams Genesis is good, but I'd like to keep it to free as in beer options to encourage experimentation. in reply to markmcwilliams #
@devinsays haha. I already have code that makes thematic look like twenty ten, so it wouldn't be that hard to confuse people… in reply to devinsays #
@rzen Thanks, but I'm hoping to keep it free as in beer for all the participants to experiment later. Unless you want to donate 200 copies? in reply to rzen #

I'm excited to learn from @designsimply on how to support WordPress #

"your hosting cost per month should be at least the amount you would be willing to pay for a shrimp dinner" – @markjaquith #wcpdx #
@carlhancock That points out so many problems both with people hosting, and more importantly there eating. in reply to carlhancock #

@andrea_r Wait, I want brownies. cc/@petemall #
"Educate your clients on what the WordPress license is and why Open Source is good" – @Amandablum #wcpdx #
@kchrist I disagree. They deserve to know the rights that they have and are often happy to know them. in reply to kchrist #
.@petemall is sitting in the unconference lobby looking lonely. Someone should go up to him and give him a hug. #wcpdx #
Slides and code examples are finished with twenty-five minutes to spare. #wcpdx #
@kmcdade That's a good question. I'm guessing not the lunch room. in reply to kmcdade #
If there are any technical problems with my speech, #blamenacin #wcpdx #
Somehow @nacin hacked my twitter and changed my profile to use a lowercase P. Fixed and password is updated. #
#fail I forgot to #blamenacin in the the last tweet. Thanks for reminding me @designsimply #
@nacin I'm sure you'll enjoy it. I think we should discuss peace over beer on Wednesday. #blamenacin in reply to nacin #

@PeteWright Thank you. #

Had a great WordCamp weekend. My Slides / new site will be up tomorrow. It was great to be around so many bright people. #wcpdx #
@darrenmeehan @nacin is really a machine based on the amount of code he produces. Skynet perhaps? Resist the machines. in reply to darrenmeehan #
RT @joshmckenney: OH: @aaronjorbin "Good developers are Lazy Developers" #wcpdx #
Not enough. I suck as a client. RT @chexee: @aaronjorbin how much do you charge yourself? #wcpdx #
RT @JohnMetta: @aaronjorbin turns child themes from something I'll get around to into #omgwhyamInotdoingthis rightnow #
RT @JohnMett: Really wish I'd skipped @aaronjorbin's #wcpdx talk… Because now I'm forced to redevelop all my sites with new (child) theme. #
@meeshiefeet You'll be a happier developer. At least that's what I hope. in reply to meeshiefeet #
@andrewspittle you're wrong in reply to andrewspittle #
@nacin I'm pretty sure that the conjunction of you and are is "you're" which shows that "you are wrong" was the intended remark, since he is in reply to nacin #
@itsbooyer Glad I could make your development experience easier. Exactly as I had hoped. in reply to itsbooyer #
@nacin It wasn't wrong before. The only obvius answer: #blamenacin in reply to nacin #
@nacin My spell check on documentation patches seems to work well in reply to nacin #
@nacin resolve as: worksforme in reply to nacin #
@nacin component => spellchecker in reply to nacin #
