Strip! is a WordPress plugin that allows you hide links from a given comment. Unlike other plugins that do the same purpose, you can restore the links anytime you want.
I developed Strip! because of an interesting trend in the behavior of my commenters: some would respond to my share their thoughts on a given post, but unfortunately link to some off-topic pages at the bottom of their comment. Typically, I can just mark the comment as spam or disapprove it, or just delete it. But there are times when the on–topic part of their comment is admittedly necessary and helpful to the discussion — this is where I use my Strip! plugin.

BukoPie is a feed reader based on SimplePie and hacked into a WordPress plugin. The feed content presentation is heavily based on the demo provided with the default SimplePie package with the addition of functionality allowing users to subscribe to feeds and categorize them through tagging. This has been in use internally in my various WordPress weblogs for several weeks now, though technically it is still in beta and will continue to be a work in progress. Nevertheless, you might want to try it.

SmartyPants is a web publishing utility that translates plain ASCII punctuation characters into “smart” typographic punctuation HTML entities. This plugin allows you to conditionally enable SmartyPants for a single post/entry, affecting the the_title, the_content, and the the_excerpt fields by simply adding a custom field named smartypants-on-demand with a value of 1. Replace 1 with a 0 or simply delete the custom field to use WP’s wptexturize() instead.
This is a modification of Michel Fortin’s PHP SmartyPants, based on the original Perl version by John Gruber.
Based on version 1.5.1b of PHP SmartyPants.

tapsiLOG is the weblog publishing application formerly used on this site, before the switch to WordPress. PHP–based and using file–based storage, it featured its own templating system, comments and trackback posting/pinging.
Unfortunately, time constraints has forced me to move to the more mature and feature–rich WordPress, now a major force in the weblog publishing arena.
