Site upgrade to WordPress 1.2

WordPress, the great software that I have used to manage this web site’s contents, has just released version 1.2. They have included a new Permalinks method that does not require having an .htaccess file, so that solves the one problem I had with the previous release. If you see anything not working correctly, just drop me a note.

New Location

Sorry for all of the moving around over the last few months. This is the last one. Welcome to the new Yannick’s Corner. The links for the categories, archives and calendar don’t work yet, but that should be corrected in the next few days. In the mean time, you can use the search engine or the Next Page / Previous Page links at the bottom of the site to navigate through older posts. Sorry for the inconvenience.

New Blog Tool

Well, I have just converted my WebLog from Blogger to WordPress. The conversion went quite well since they have an HTML-based template system and reside on a MySQL database. This conversion gives new functionality to the blog. You will notice the calendar on the right-hand side of the page, as well as a list of categories to filter the list of entries displayed. Let me know if you stumble onto any problems while navigating.

New Link

I have just added a new link on the left side to uneporte.net, the site I write DVD reviews for. Check out my reviews and those of my fellow contributors if you can read french.

New Section

I have just added a new section to the site listing a bunch of freeware applications that I have discovered over the last few months that I think you will also find useful. Give them a try and tell me what you think.

I also added a new banner for Mozilla Firefox, since it is really a great new browser that has won me over.
