Ubuntu Bug Jam

Ubuntu Bug Jam

From Friday 2nd to Sunday many Ubuntu, Linux and Open Source enthusiasts descended upon the Linux Emporium to take part in the Ubuntu Bug Jam. In the words of an Ubuntu blogger, the Ubuntu Bug Jam is:

…a world-wide online and face-to-face event to get people together to fix Ubuntu bugs - we want to get as many people online fixing bugs, having a great time doing so, and putting their brick in the wall for free software. This is not only a great opportunity to really help Ubuntu, but to also get together with other Ubuntu fans to make a difference together, either via your LoCo team, your LUG, other free software group, or just getting people together in your house/apartment to fix bugs and have a great time.


Wordpress Theme Development

I’ve finally updated to Wordpress 2.5. Great looking interface!

On a similar note I’ve finally decided that I’m going to develop my own Wordpress theme. Although I have a bit of knowledge when it comes to CSS and PHP I’m not really clued up on the structure of Wordpress, so have always avoided it. Here are my efforts as of today:

The overall idea is to create a Wordpress theme that is better suited to a portfolio website than a blog. In the long term I want to be able to have different layouts that are more typical of portfolio websites and also allow integration with Gallery2, which itself will have a modified display to suit portfolio websites.
