One Year Anniversary: Random Image Selector 1.2.0

I can’t believe it’s been one year since the last major release of the random image selector. Since the plugin’s initial inception last summer it has received a fair amount of attention garnering nearly 11,000 downloads.

I’m glad that it’s proven useful for people and there will be a major update coming out over the Christmas break to coincide with the WordPress 2.7 release. This update will include a few bug fixes, a couple of minor feature changes and one significant addition.

Thanks to everyone who has downloaded the plugin, and to those who have left feedback on the blog!

Explaining the Google – WordPress Experiment

Here’s the relaunch of KickJoey!

I’m relaunching with a bit of a project in mind: get this site from a PageRank 0 to a PageRank 1 in 7 days. Impossible? Probably, but I’ll try it anyway.

Why PageRank? Because I’d like to start doing reviews here that I can collect on. Yes, paid blogging. I didn’t really want to to advertorial posts on kdmurray.net, but it’s something I’ve wanted to try out.

What next? Well, time to find some content to do reviews on over the next 7 days, and try to get some links pointed here from some other websites.

Let’s see if we can get this site on Google’s radar in only 7 days.
