The update to Wordpress 2.7 didn’t go as smoothly as I hoped it would. Several plugins stopped working and my cache doesn’t refresh anymore.

I got some weird problems with a couple of plugins after the update last night.

Zemanta itself still seems to work fine, but another plugin that I already identified is my beloved “decoratr’ for blog posts :>( I will be traveling over the next week, but maybe I can fix things while on the road, please bear with me…

Rich Internet (micro) TV portals with increasing interactivity are emerging. They include social as well as media immersion – more than just content, but a complete platform. The question is what telecoms can offer as a platform provider.
