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. The new Wordpress 2.7 Dashboard only displayed half the information, the cache is not refreshing, and image resize after upload – or the upload itself, I don’t know yet – stopped working. Especially the caching problem is annoying, I hardly ever get a refresh after blog post changes, especially with mashed-up content by Zemanta. 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…
Lesson learned: Don’t start working on your blog layout and/or software if you have to travel the next day.
Old News for us might be new news for the mainstream. In future posts you’ll see some older stuff popping up again, that is (hopefully) nevertheless relevant for the months ahead. if you don’t like it, or it’s already “old news” for you – just skip it.
The new Strobe framework builds on the vision of the Open Screen Project, a broad industry initiative to deliver a consistent runtime environment across desktops, televisions, mobile phones, and consumer electronics. While this might be a game changer for over-the-top video, I wonder how DRM and existing IPTV platforms will react on this.
