Posting to the Future

by Perceval Mackendrick

Wordpress lovers, this one is for you. :P

Unlike Blogger (@blogspot.com), Wordpress comes with the Post-to-the-Future addon which allows the writer to set dates to when the post will be published. However, the best application of this comes in handy when you are going on a vacation, and yes, we know that you do, and we won’t blame you for doing so.

(Besides, if didn’t take vacations, half of us would be out of our minds :P)

As a frequent Posting to the Future user, I find this feature really helpful, because as a busy man I am, it is really good for me to write my posts on the weekends and the set the dates for them throughout the weeks. However, you will want to make sure you are staying up with the current events or technology if you have a tech blog.

Also, I have a statistic meter that catches how many vists/pageviews I get, but the problem is that the meter starts counting a new day at 3 AM instead of 12 AM. But no worries, I can just set my Post to the Future, to 3 AM so that the post gets a whole 24 hours worth of viewing.

(If you are one of those organized & neat people, then you might understand where I’m coming from, otherwise, take a break here to look at the picture below. Yes, she is nice looking, I agree. )

Well, thats what’s cooking here today at Blog News Watch. Now, if you haven’t already got a Wordpress Blog, you might want to make one starting here.

So, best of luck to all of you, and Enjoy the week.

Also, Please feel free to leave a comment! :!:
