OpenOffice Easter Egg

open OpenOffice Spreadsheet and type =GAME(”StarWars”)

Zemanta

Source: WikipediaI am writing this entry to test Zemanta - it’s an extension for WordPress and other blogging platforms which automagically suggests images (from Flickr) and links to related articles on whatever you’re writing about. Seems like pretty clever stuff to me. It’s a very simple install, no messing about with WordPress plugin installs, it’s just a Firefox extension.. So after writing 300 characters it goes and looks for suggestions or you can force it to look for suggestions. At the bottom it comes up with suggested links and tags, when I click “Apply All” it added links to Zemanta and WordPress above all by itself. That’s pretty neat. It has found some related articles, such as the one on Techcrunch from which I found Zemanta in the first place. Clicking it makes that “Related articles” box down there appear. And now let’s add an image. There it is over on the right, simple! This post is officially Zemified!!

Been busy

Been working full time these past couple of weeks, got a few posts in the pipeline though. This blog isn’t dead yet! For some reason the visual editor on my WordPress install decided to not work and I couldn’t be bothered with fixing it but it’s working again now.

In other news, Chris Moyles, (self-proclaimed) saviour of Radio 1, is off on holiday for two weeks. I’m not a huge fan of Scott Mills either, so does anyone have any morning radio suggestions?
