Clever WordPress

One of the best things about WordPress is that it’s so clever.

It really is very clever!

If you can think of something, so can someone else. Now that the world is so big, some of those people who also thought of it use WordPress. Better still, at least one of them probably wrote a plugin that makes it happen.

I’ve just realised that I’ve had an idea for a plugin that may not exist yet. This is unusual for me. Better yet, I think it’s a bit of a corker. Shush. Don’t tell anyone, let’s see if I can crack this on my own first.

Then I’ll have to suffer the ignominy of being the guy with the great idea who watches other people do it better and shinier and more monetized in about twenty seconds. Mind you, it will still have been my idea.

Now, off to my local search engine. I need to make sure I really am the only person who has thought of this.

Oh, and in other news, Christmas is only a few days away. To those of you who are interested. Happy Christmas. To those of you who aren’t cheer up! It’s an opportunity to celebrate when it’s cold and dull outside. Get with it!

Personally, regardless of how you feel about Jesus, I think this is a tremendous time to celebrate ideals and principles that are recognised as universal. Courage, dignity, honour, friendship and trust. All of which are exemplified in the accounts of Jesus’ life. If he’s a myth to you then it should be a poignant one, and worth celebrating. If he is a friend, then all the more so.

Set something aside, let something go and enjoy a warmth that goes beyond even that of the smell of mum’s gravy. Happy Christmas!
