Invading Earth’s Blogs

invading Invading Earths BlogsWhen I logged onto my computer last night to do a last-minute blog post before hitting the pillow, I was surprised, but in a good way, at the title of the first post in the WordPress dashboard.

I had a sneaking suspicion that it could be, might not be, but most likely was, a post about me. Interest turned to suspicion, suspicion to tempered excitement, and tempered excitement to elation as I discovered that I had unintentionally invaded all the blogs on the Internet powered by the WordPress engine.

I finally did it everyone. I invaded the WordPress blogs of millions of people everywhere in the form of the latest news post by WordPress guru Mark Gosh from the Weblog Tools Collection. In the dashboards of everyone everywhere are little news posts titled “Uber Unique Prize for Plugin Competition”. Click here to read the post.

The annual WordPress Plugin Competition has started with a prize pool of over $3,500 USD for the winners. There’s already some great plugins developed for the competition including personal favorite of mine SEO Smart Links by Vladimir Prelovac.

If you are a plugin developer, get in there and enter the competition! Maybe I’ll even write a song for you. As for me… what next? World domination of course whahey!

On this day..
