It has been more than one and half year after I released Organizer plugin for Wordpress. Initially I wrote that plugin to help my dad who was blogging that time. Latter he stopped blogging so I stopped further updates on Organizer. Recently I got couple of mails asking for an updated version. I have decided to write a simple version from scratch with basic functionalities which can help bloggers to manage the files.
The features I am planning to include for 2.0 alpha are the following
1. Manage files from the upload folder
2. Copy / Move / Delete files from upload directory
3. Use phpThumb for image manipulation
4. Use smarty for clean code
5. Use jquery for ajax and DOM handling
6. Complete rewrite of everything as it is a complete.
7. Full support for 2.3.2 and above only.
I should be able to release the basic version by end of Feb 2008. I am really thank full for all the people who have downloaded the plugin and used it. And thanks for pushing me so hard so that I can move my lazy butt and do some work during my weekends.
Yesterday I got a new iPhone. I am really grateful to Yousef for bringing me such a wonderful gadget. With tips from my friend Iyad I was able to make it work in U.A.E. Everything was smooth and works like a charm.This is the best mobile I have ever used in my life. The iPhone I got had firmware 1.1.1 and I used this website to make it work.
This week I got a new Blackberry Pearl 8100 from office. It is one of the smallest PDAs and really does a wonderful job.

Today I upgraded my blog to the latest wordpress release. The upgrade was quite simple as usual. This time I made it a point to clear all my plugins and download all the latest ones.
I planning to discontinue my plugin organizer. There is no time to update such a big plugin these days. I will update menu manager and pda plugin this weekend.
I really like the tag feature in the new wordpress. There are few things I feel it is very much needed
Tag manager
Bulk post tag updater
Quick tag update on posts
I already have so many post and I edited few for tag and I felt lazy and stopped. Thanks to wordpress for this wonder update
It was another exciting evening at Mall of Emirates, Dubai. Flip Media has arranged a wonderful party for all of flippers. It was in Ski Dubai. It was my first skiing experience. We had training session where they taught us how to ski. I was the only one who kept falling down every 5 minutes. I had taken my camera and took some video. It was horrible as I was walking and talking to all people. It took me 3 hours in iMovie to create a good clip out of it. I didn’t take my camera inside so I was not able to shoot inside. My friends has taken some snaps. May be latter I will update this post with some cool picture.
After skiing we went for dinner and we had to cook our food. It was fun . Please see the video and post your comments
Update: Some picture from inside Ski Dubai. Thanks to Leilanie
