Friend of mine mailed me that coming August 31, 2007 is the Blog day. First, I was confused it is an official day of blog ? But later, I learned that it is a day, initiated by Nir ofir, that wants bloggers to have one day dedicated to getting to know other bloggers from other countries and areas of interest. On that day Bloggers will recommend other blogs to their blog visitors.
As they said in Blog Day site
What will happen on BlogDay?
one long moment on August 31st, bloggers from all over the world will post recommendations of 5 new Blogs, preferably Blogs that are different from their own culture, point of view and attitude. On this day, blog readers will find themselves leaping around and discovering new, unknown Blogs, celebrating the discovery of new people and new bloggers.
BlogDay posting instructions:
- Find 5 new Blogs that you find interesting
- Notify the 5 bloggers that you are recommending them as part of BlogDay 2007
- Write a short description of the Blogs and place a link to the recommended Blogs
- Post the BlogDay Post (on August 31st) and
- Add the BlogDay tag using this link:
- http://technorati.com/tag/BlogDay2007 and a link to the BlogDay web site at http://www.blogday.org
In my last post, I explained how to install Apache, php and mysql on windows using Appserv. Now I’ll explain how to install wordpress.

Daily Blog Tips tool called Pro Blogger Test that tests not only blogging but also some stuff like HTML tags, robots.txt which Professional blogger should know. I tested for first time and got 80%, oh God! Am I professional blogger ? :P
What it is ?
Bloggers around the world who participate in Blog Action Day will post a single topic on October 15, 2007. The topic is “Environment“. Your post can be anything which is related to environment.
For example, if you had a blog about programming and technology, you could write about applications used for the environment, how to make your office more sustainable, how to stop wasting paper, why technology will save the environment, or just write about an environmental issue which has nothing to do with programming!
There are three things you can do to participate in Blog Action Day.
Installing Apache Web Server, php and MySQL individually on Windows is not easy task. Because it might takes long time time to make so many configurations to work well such as editing in .ini setting, httpd.conf and many services and extensions used by Apache, php and MySql.
Thoughts just come up in my mind in during these days that I’m having guts to write WordPress tutorials especially for bloggers who want to start blogging using WordPress.org in their own host. I’ve been spending most of my spare time in blogging in blogger (blogspot) for a year though I created account in December 2005.
I’ve learned that some of blogs in blogsophere wrote up wordpress tutorials lately. But I want to have my own reference about the things which I’m using and of course I also want to focus on one topic I’m currently interested. And I also have a feeling that writing tutorials and tips/tricks are the best way to improve one’s curiosity to try out his current niche of interest and those makes easier to remember when forgot. Anyway, I’ll try to post as much as I can.
