This weekend was exactly what I needed. My mother-in-law was in town from Chicago, and we took the kids up to Grant’s Farm (pictures to come from that trip). I managed to get a lot of really productive work done on a few WordPress projects in the late nights, but mostly the days were spent having good times with family.

And my phone broke. But it’s OK now.

I have an iPhone 3GS. I’ve been playing with it for the better part of the day and I do have to say that this thing is about to become as indispensable as my Moleskine and my wallet.

Having this much communicative ability and utility with me everywhere I go is something that I should have done a long time ago. What an awesome little device. Considering the fact that I didn’t even have a texting plan on the old phone, this is a massive shift.

I plan on posting up more detailed thoughts on the blog after I’ve had some time to play with it.

This post is brought to you by the 3GS I picked up to replace my busted RAZR.

I love being a father.

This is awesome. The WordPress.com blog…

This is awesome.

The WordPress.com blog is now being translated regularly into Japanese and Portuguese.

And according to Zé Fontainhas, the blogs are also being populated with content specific to those locales and/or languages.

A neat idea, and one that will hopefully continue to drive WordPress adoption in the non-English-speaking world.

(They asked me to do this. Well, the older one did. And my eldest is enjoying his Xbox time, so he just had to miss out on this one.)
