Pownce, Textpattern 4.0.7 and WordPress 2.7-RC1
Here are some news I noted for this few weeks.
Pownce is acquired by Six Apart, a company behind Movable Type, Typepad, and also VOX. I got the invitation in July 2007. After that, I did not use it regularly. What’s next? Well, the news says that Pownce will be taken down on December 15th:
We’ll be closing down the main Pownce website two weeks from today, December 15th. Since we’d like for you to have access to all your Pownce messages, we’ve added an export function. Visit pownce.com/settings/export/ to generate your export file. You can then import your posts to other blogging services such as Vox, TypePad, or WordPress.
For our Pro members, we’ll be emailing you soon with more information about your Pro account. (source)
Let’s wait about this acquisition. Integration with other Six Apart’s products like VOX or TypePad? That sounds interesting.
Now, about TextPattern. TextPattern 4.0.7 was released last week with some feature enhancement. The tag parser looks great.
Last but not least, WordPress 2.7 Release Candidate 1 is available. I tried it on this blog, and it looks great! I like the new dashboard, the designs, element placement, and more. Blog management should be fun. I feel that. Great!
