WordCast 70: Sexy Stats

Kym’s back from lawyer land for our 70th show, fea­tur­ing more WP.org/MU merge news, the idea of track­backs being point­less, and even our very favorite build­ing that’s ever graced Canada, the Van­cou­ver Con­ven­tion Cen­ter! Plus: John P. of Woopra gives us the low­down on its arrival in non-beta form, and what’s in the pipe for the real-time sta­tis­tics it offers. All that and more, this week.

• Bud­dy­Press 1.1 in Beta
• Track­backs… Pointless?
• John Pozadzides of Woopra — Com­ing Out of Beta!
• NOTE: Some­thing screwed up on the board dur­ing the record­ing so we didn’t end up actu­ally AIRING the Wealth Nation jin­gle, instead it was just played back for Dave, Kym and John. If you’re still curi­ous, here’s a link.
• Celebrity Pressers:

  • Van­cou­ver Con­ven­tion Center
