Another WordPress Blog http://tellurium.wordpress.com/

A (@psychemedia) Blog ouseful.wordpress.co

A brief comment here just to place something / anything until I have something worthwhile to say. Just experimenting with WordPress, and need a post HERE. Testing if this category thing works like I expect it to.

ALSO; I would be good to have a link to the ‘Start-Page’ http://grd.net.au here. OK, now this link is NOT automatically created, I will have to explore that a little further.

ADDING: (To ALL posts, as a way to get BACK to the start)

<a href=”http://grd.net.au/blog/?m=200906″> Home </a>

It is OK, But for my liking, I NEED to be able to do this Quickly.
AND; Being new to wordpress, the quickly thing is NOT happening.
The ‘Home’ link is a bit clunky, when there are other-links generated by word press, but when I click on the TAG-Links, there is NO-way to get back to the ‘Beggining’. (It is important to me to understand how wordpress behaves,  and have access to the start-page while testing/developing)

UPDATED – POST: [6 Jan 2010] – can a trackback be edited on URL: http://ouseful.wordpress.com/2009/07/15/why-private-browsing-isnt/

It is unbelievable how LINKs are EVERYWHERE across various blogs and other forums based content boards across the Internet – REFERENCE – http://grd.net.au/blog/?p=1227

The renaming Blog to blog – PROBLEM – and broken links – BROKEN google-Links

TRIED – THIS; http://www.google.com/submityourcontent/index.html

AND – THIS; http://www.google.com/addurl/?continue=/addurl

Installed WordPress (Ver 2.8) 7:15pm Friday 12 June 2009, and as usual I need to become familiar with how this thing works, so dont expect too much just yet.

Well, that all seems to work.  RSS-feeds all taken care of by WordPress. Ability for anybody to ‘comment’, also taken care of by wordpress. (All to easy)

Why would anybody want to learn about HTML and Web-Design?

[SUNDAY 14 June 2009] Now, instead of learning about how HTML 4.0 or 5.0 works, I have to learn to use this thing called wordpress (Blogging Software). This inturn has a ‘learning-curve’ around the administration console, and hence becomes another chore to use until it is understood what / how it behaves. Grumble grumble!

The blogging software does not work in a manner that I am used to, .. so in response, I place time/date/year comments at the beggining of each new entry, until I understand BETTER, how this might be done automatically by the blogging software, (If at all)

USING CATEGORIES; This feature will be good, once I figure out how it is supposed to work, (As opposed to how I might think it works). Example, I have added a number of ‘categories’, and it simply places a Link on the home pages which points to the ‘already-existing-text-&-comments’. I expect categories to separate various content by name. I am missing something here, and more experinece is required.

MORE; I have added ‘Test-CAT’, as a place to mess-about and explore further, .. HOW exactly the category feature works.

[Friday 19 June 2009] The category thing has been sorted now. It is not difficult. I just had to do some other stuff, and come back to THIS a little later, and it all ‘just-works’ now. Created category ‘Technolgy’, and that should be where most computer related stuff will be filed.

UPDATED – 5:15pm Friday 15 January 2010 – The ‘Home’ link at the top of this page has a Broken-Blog link – Fixed by changing Blog to blog.
