has anyone tried this? is there a way to customize the import process so you can have each cell be a post and one element of each row be a tag for all of the other posts/cells?

is the polldaddy plugin working on wp 2.7? i can’t get it to work at all.

Yeah. I was hoping there would be a top 100 of just wordpress blogs. also found out that https://www.inquisitr.com uses WP

Hi Dwayne,

In a way, since this project for you seems to be part professional and part extra curricular, the .com/.org decision will come to depend on what kind of person you are. If you like to tinker with things and don’t mind trying to learn a tiny bit about html and css, then go for .org. In 2 years, when you are easily able to edit everything about your site, you’ll be thankful for the freedom of .org. You don’t need to know how to write CSS or HTML, you only need to know how to tinker with it. For example, I couldn’t write a CSS file if my life depended on it. But I sure can open one up, go in and change a few things like font size, colors, etc. Same with HTML. Also, from a personal branding branding perspective, you can’t beat a customized layout. Savvy web users will be able to tell that you’re using the free version.

Just some thoughts…. ??

Hi,
wordpress is incredibly useful and you can probably accomplish your goals with it. But the primary thing that wordpress does is allow you to easily update content that goes to the top of the page (in the blog format). so if the client will be continually adding info to the site that needs to go straight to the top, then it will be great. but if the owner wants a static front page with an updating calendar and a few other updating pages, wordpress may not be the ideal solution. that being said, wordpress can easily be manipulated to do lots of other different things so it will work. but just know that you may have to do some small fishing around to make it suitable for the client’s needs.
