I finally migrated from MediaTemple to Joyent, a change I’ve been trying to make for a few months now. I wonder how it’ll work out.

Speaking of change, I’m glad to announce the future availability of WP-o-Matic 1.0 with its new website (which has been in the oven for longer than a year!). You’ll see many new features, bugfixes, and the birth of a great little community.

I’ll be releasing two other small WordPress plugins that developers will find specially useful. One of them is Base-Plugin, a template plugin architecture aimed to make your own plugins preparation easier. It features a very small template management system, it sets variables and functions that you might find yourself writing over time after time, and more.

And for those who wish to include details about their plugins hosted at WordPress Extend in their websites, Extendfetch will be nothing short of amazing. It fetches and lets you display the number of downloads, links and it’s dead easy to integrate.
