WordPress Weekly Logo This is round 2 of Episode 21 since last week, the show was canceled due to technical difficulties.In this episode, call in guests Brad Williams and Jacob Santos helped me dissect the news of the week. The show came out to be an hour long and I feel that we all did a pretty darn good job in covering the various viewpoints regarding the news items. Enjoy the show.

The next episode of WordPress Weekly won’t be until July 11th when Alex King will be on for an hour long interview. Mark that down on your calendars as I’m sure you won’t want to miss out on that. Have a happy and safe fourth of July!

Great show, Jeff. I also enjoyed Jacob and Brad’s contributions.

You briefly mentioned ScribeFire, so I had to see what it was all about.
Playing with it now, but I’m not sure if it will make life that much easier, yet.

Perhaps you could include how you use ScribeFire and your workflow into a future podcast?
Also including any “expert” tips about ScribeFire and it’s features. (For example, I cannot figure out why “Post as Page” is one of the default buttons in the composition pane.)

Looking forward to the Alex King interview on July 11th.
Have a great Fourth of July!

@Brian M - Thanks for the awesome comments. Brad and Jacob certainly added to the high quality to this latest episode. As for as ScribeFire, I will write a post soon in regards to this nifty Firefox extension which should answer most of your questions.

- Upgrading will NOT disabled XML-RPC & AtomPub
- New blogs will have them disabled by default
- There is no check box for enabling them during the install or upgrade
