New features on Tech IT Easy !!!

Dear readers,

Just a small meta-update.

Bloggers’ spotlight

As you may have noticed, we added a nice BIG box on the right with a spot-light on all our bloggers—geeks from various disciplines . You can click on their names and see all the posts they’ve written on Tech IT Easy.

The reason we did this is because a blog needs a voice, and we realise that the sometimes-chaotic diversity of topics that we write, may not always correspond to your expectations. So now, you can just look at Jeremy’s posts, mostly on software, the lovely Fidji, often on e-commerce topics, or the equally lovely Georgia, with a strong communications-focus in her first post on TIE (don’t forget to welcome her!), as well as works of the other 12 bloggers.

More info about individual bloggers can be found by clicking on the ‘info‘ links, or on the about-page.

(Note: sadly individual rss-feeds do not work. That is a problem that WordPress has architectured for unknown reasons and really frustrates us. You can send them a hate-mail here) Matt Thomas added a valuable comment, explaining how to enable rss-feeds per author.

Tech IT Easy News-service

Another box you’ll find on the right is the Tech IT Easy news-service, where we add stories from the media that we find interesting and are hopefully of added value to our readers.

Presence elsewhere

In case you missed it, Tech IT Easy is also on Twitter, Jaiku, and Facebook !

The first two are essentially rss-aggregators of what we write about here. Jaiku also collects individual bloggers’ twitter-feeds and the news-service bookmarks (which we may introduce to Twitter also). Facebook is not doing so well, but that’s probably because it sucks (haha).

Roughly half of the crew are also on Twitter! You can check them out here: Cecil, Fidji, Jeremy, Kari, Leonard, Matthias, Remy, and Vincent.

For the rest

You can always write to us via mail. If you want to send feedback, feel free. If you want to join us as a blogger, send us a nice mail, impress us with your comments and writing, and we’ll be happy to have you on board.

That’s it! Wishing everyone an enjoyable, productive, and lucrative 2008 !

Signed,
The Tech IT Easy-crew.

If you have feedback let us know in the comments, and if anything was left anything out… sorry… please say so.

  1. I must admit I’m not much of a technical type, but this I found curious:

    (Note: sadly individual rss-feeds do not work. That is a problem that WordPress has architectured for unknown reasons and really frustrates us. You can send them a hate-mail here)

    Are you referring to RSS feeds for each author? These are availably simply by appending “feed” to the end of the author URLs you’re using now. For example:

    http://techiteasy.org/author/vincevanwylick/feed

    Hope that helps. Apologies if that wasn’t what you were going for. :)
