Why I love WordPress
Posted by: sharmajee on: May 31, 2009
Everyone loves WordPress, or so it seems. And why not!
I stumbled upon this post, at a knitting site while surfing about the latest WordPress innovation, blogging by email. I couldn’t have said it any better.
What with all the recent modifications and nifty features, Blog This button, VideoPress, etc., etc., WordPress is the undsiputed blog-platform beyond compare.
Thank You WordPress!

- Happy Hanukkah December 16, 2009Todd and I would like to offer our best wishes to the Jewish community as they celebrate Hanukkah. Known as the Festival of Lights, Hanukkah commemorates the eight-day miracle that took place when the Temple in Jerusalem was rededicated. Though there was only enough consecrated oil for one day, the flame miraculously burned for eight – just long enough to pr […]
- Greener Than Thou? December 16, 2009Why is Governor Schwarzenegger pushing for the same sorts of policies in Copenhagen that have helped drive his state into record deficits and unemployment? Perhaps he will recall that I live in our nation’s only Arctic state and that I was among the first governors to create a sub-cabinet to deal specifically with climate change. While I and all Alaskans wit […]
- The Tonight Show Last Night December 12, 2009The Conan visit was fun – the best part was that we had Wounded Warriors with us in the audience. I can’t express how proud I am of their courage and patriotism. I’m extremely happy that Laura Ingraham had the great idea to put the simple coat from the cover of my book to good use. It’s being auctioned to benefit the Wounded Warrior Project and the Fisher Ho […]
- More Photos from the Tour December 11, 2009Had a wonderful time in the Lower 48 this week. The weather has been just like home! Please enjoy the photos below from Texas, Virginia, Iowa, South Dakota, and Minnesota. - Sarah Palin
- Home to Alaska December 10, 2009This book tour has been an amazing and inspirational experience for me and my family as we crisscrossed the country and met so many wonderful Americans. At nearly every stop we met someone with a connection to Alaska – usually through the military from being stationed at one of Alaska’s bases. With that in mind, we’ve decided to hold the final book signings […]
- Laura Ingraham’s Auction to Benefit Our Military December 10, 2009It’s a privilege to participate in the auction Laura Ingraham is organizing to help our men and women in uniform. Laura asked if I would donate the jacket I wore on the cover of my book, “Going Rogue.” I can’t think of a better cause, and it’s especially fitting because the book is dedicated to patriots and in particular to our women and men in uniform. All […]
- The Washington Post Op-ed and Response to Climate Change and Gravity December 9, 2009Copenhagen’s political science The Washington Post By Sarah Palin Wednesday, December 9, 2009 With the publication of damaging e-mails from a climate research center in Britain, the radical environmental movement appears to face a tipping point. The revelation of appalling actions by so-called climate change experts allows the American public to finally unde […]
- Drill, Baby, Drill... Even Off-Shore December 8, 2009I commend Interior Secretary Salazar’s decision today to conditionally approve drilling at three exploratory wells in the Chukchi Sea off the northwest coast of Alaska; it’s a decision that’s been a long time coming. The area north of the Arctic Circle contains some of the world’s richest oil and gas reserves. U.S. Geological Survey researchers estimate that […]
- Reflection on Pearl Harbor December 7, 2009On December 7, 1941, the Empire of Japan launched a surprise attack on the U. S. Naval Station at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, in which thousands of Americans lost their lives and our naval fleet was severely damaged. The events of that day, which President Franklin Roosevelt vowed would “live in infamy,” proved for many Americans that aggressors would not simply i […]
- Worthy American Heroes - Reminding Us What Really Matters December 4, 2009Ready and anxious to see America’s finest at Ft. Hood tomorrow. My heart is with every military mom, dad, spouse, child, grandparent... every supporter of our proud men and women in uniform. My brother passed the following along to me because he thought I’d like it; he was right. Enjoy... and please honor America’s finest. - Sarah Palin The average age of th […]

NEWS-BUSTERS! Don’t Believe What You Read Elsewhere!
- Network Shows Ignore Copenhagen's Warm Reception for Anti-Capitalist Rhetoric From Chavez December 17, 2009Earlier this week, NewsBusters Editor at Large Brent Baker noted how the broadcast networks seemed oblivious to communist protesters outside the Copenhagen global warming summit. But the Red-friendly red meat slogans are not just being tossed about by violent demonstrators outside the conference. Yesterday, NewsBusters sister site CNSNews.com noted how disse […]Ken Shepherd
- ABC’s George Stephanopoulos Can't Stop Giggling at Sarah Palin December 17, 2009New Good Morning America co-host George Stephanopoulos and the rest of the morning show crew couldn’t help laughing at Sarah Palin on Thursday. News anchor Juju Chang highlighted a story broken by the tabloid TMZ that the former vice presidential candidate was seen at a Hawaii beach wearing a blacked out McCain visor. [Audio available here.] After Chang note […]Scott Whitlock
- 'My Skis Recognize That Climate Change Is Happening' December 17, 2009A number of the media's talking heads have tried to use cold temperatures as evidence of global warming. As strange as that seems, some may have decided on an even more ridiculous "proof" of global warming: poor skiing conditions in Pennsylvania (h/t Ed Driscoll). Apparently the new measure for global warming is how well one's skis slide […]Lachlan Markay
- New York Times Portrays Fannie, Freddie as Private 'Companies' December 17, 2009Citi may be ready to pay back the U.S. government, but according to The New York Times at least four groups are still in need of funds from the federal government. "These companies, the American International Group, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and GMAC, are not only unable to repay the government, they are in need of continuing infusions that make them look […]Julia A.

- Tea Party Movement Tops Established Parties in NBC/WSJ Poll Despite Biased Question, Skewed Sample December 17, 2009Yesterday at NewsBusters, Geoffrey Dickens documented the furor of MSNBC's Chris Mathews over the results of an NBC/Wall Street Journal poll (PDF). Specifically, Mathews was irked that the Tea Party Movement (TPM) was viewed quite a bit more favorably than the two major political parties by those polled (VP=Very Positive; SP=Somewhat Positive; N=Neutral […]Tom Blumer

December 17, 2009With the imminent release of the science fiction blockbuster "Avatar," some have characterized it as a multi-million dollar public service announcment for global warming.Popular Science reported Tuesday: Unlike [George] Lucas’ more playful science fiction epic ["Star Wars"], [James] Cameron reaches for a heavy environmental message. Avata […]Noel Sheppard
- CBS: Dems ‘Tantalizingly Close’ On Health Care; Republicans Use ‘Stall Tactics’ December 17, 2009At the top of Thursday’s CBS Early Show, correspondent Nancy Cordes excitedly proclaimed that Senate Democrats “are tantalizingly close” to passing a health care bill and derided Republicans for trying to “thwart” the legislation using “stall tactics.” Cordes reported on the urgency of Democratic efforts to get 60 votes in the Senate: “Leaders are trying t […]Kyle Drennen
- Blogger Who Bashed Palin for Employing Ghostwriter Employs 'Ghostbloggers' December 17, 2009Remember all those blog posts from the Atlantic's Andrew Sullivan bashing Sarah Palin for employing a ghostwriter? Well, it turns out many of those posts may have been written by...a ghostblogger! Apparently Sullivan's busy schedule prevented him from writing everything on his site, so, without informing his readers, he employed a few ghostbloggers […]Lachlan Markay
- Behar Politicizes Rush Limbaugh Wedding to Make Gay Marriage Plea December 17, 2009It's probably no surprise, but conservative talker Rush Limbaugh isn't going to get a break from the liberal cheap shot artists on cable television in the wake of the news he will be getting married to Kathryn Rogers on July 4, 2010. On HLN's Dec. 17 broadcast of "The Joy Behar Show," a panel including host Joy Behar, comedian Marina […]Jeff Poor

Oh, Just a Few … December 17, 2009Ani e-mailed this Politico story to our NoQuarter writers’ mailing list: “Poll: Clinton approval soars [while Obama's sink].” Eastan McNeal wrote back, suggesting that we post this poll: We have TWO more polls for you to take below. And I’ve posted a segue on the SEXISM that is alive and well in this country. By the [...]Bronwyn's Harbor
- Kanjorski and Ackerman Undress the SEC and SIPC December 17, 2009Having written about the massive regulatory failures on Wall Street for the better part of 2009, I am heartened by the House Finance Sub-Committee on Capital Markets hearing last week. The bell that tolled in this hearing deserves to ring loud, long, and clear across our great land. Rackets operate best in the dark. Well, let’s [...]Larry Doyle

Speaking Wednesday 15 [on my syndicated radio show] with John Bolton, AEI; Coral Davenport, CQ; and Bob Zimmerman, re the UN Climate Change summit that has already plunged over the cliff into Babel and blame. Bolton’s remarks describe a UN World that believes only in one-world governance, describe a posse of developing nations called [ […]John Batchelor
- So What Did I Miss December 16, 2009While I was out of the country? Anything much happen? Ahahahhaha – just kidding. I know that while pandering to, I mean, granting an interview, to Oprah, Obama graded himeslf on a major curve and gave himself a B+ thus far. Wowie zowie – I bet his students loved him at the Law [...]Rabble Rouser Reverend Amy
- Thank You + Open Thread December 16, 2009Thanks to so many of you. Here’s a little secret to share with you: Did you know that, as soon as their story gets published, each writer rushes to see the comments you’ve posted in response? Each writer hopes to get as many comments as possible, and we especially love the high quality of [...]Bronwyn's Harbor
- Hitting Both the Ceiling and the Floor December 16, 2009When asked to think of health-related difficulties, our minds tend to fixate on conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, broken bones, and the “Big C.” We tend to ignore emotional problems, and yet they are among the fastest accelerating health conditions (as well as health costs). How much of a role does the [...]Pat Racimora
- Will Wall Street Banks be Compelled to Compensate Madoff Investors? December 16, 2009Will Congress hit Wall Street banks with a one-time assessment in order to compensate Madoff investors? Why might that happen? Very simply because SIPC (Securities Investor Protection Corporation) was woefully underfunded given the fact that SIPC member-firms, including all the large Wall Street banks, paid a token $150 (yes, that is not a misprint, a [...]Larry Doyle
- Obama Gives Himself a B+; U.S. Says C- December 16, 2009As you may know by now, Obama gave himself a B+ as president. If you haven’t read Bronwyn’s Harbor’s piece with the video clip, you might do so before eating. If you choose to watch after, I won’t answer for any sudden illness. But what does the country think Obama deserves? CNN did [...]LisaB

Thank you so much for the kudos! Now a question for you? How did you get that nifty email box on your blog? Is it supposed to open a link to email you? When I click on it, I get an error code
Thanks again sharmajee! I do LOVE the WordPress Experience and many knitter friends have jumped on this ship with me.

You are Welcome bonniezink!
Sorry about the 404, I fixed it, I think. Try it!
This is what I did. I created a blank post and appended a contact form for it, ie. simply typed [contact-form] at the end of the post. I titled this post Use This Form To Email Me. For convenience, I flagged this post private so a blank post with a wierd title won’t show up during scrolling. Also, I edited the publication time to such a date as to bury it way back in time, out of the way of all recent posts. Next, I created a text widget, found a cute, free clipart of a mail box. I made the text widget into an image link, the image is linked to my own blank post with the contact form. Voila, now people can comment to me in a general way, about whatever.
Clicking on it gives a simple contact form, filling it and submitting it triggers an email to me. It seems to work now. Another WordPerfect marvel!
I appreciate your kind remarks, thanks for taking the time!
