It just never ends with FeedBurner, that is why I am calling it quits.  The service is unreliable and the reporting is just horrible anymore.

For those of you that were subscribing through my FeedBurner URL, please use this URL: http://blog.jacobburke.com/feed/

I have discovered a great plugin for WordPress, it is called WP Greet Box.  The plugin is designed to greet visitors to your site as they click links from other sites to your posts or pages.  The plugin detects the referring URL and serves up the corresponding greeting.

The plugin has a wide range of features and an amzing user interface in the admin.  Visit the WP Greet Box plugin page to learn more.

I encourage you to check out the WP Greet Box plugin if you are looking for a way to greet visitors to your blog and potentially gain new readers :)

Cheers!

WordPress 1.2 for the iPhone is finally available.  It has been a long time coming since the last update to the software.  I am thrilled with this new release, as it will allow for page editing and comment moderation from within the app.  Additionally, the landscape keyboard is available for writing those posts on the go :)

Cheers to WordPress!

Download WordPress 1.2 from the iTunes App Store
