This page didn’t end up high when searching for delegate Facebook group management.
So that I won’t forget:
What is a group admin?
In addition to everything that group members can do, a group admin can:
- Edit the group description and settings
- Add more admins to a group
- Remove abusive posts, and remove or ban members
You’re automatically an admin if you create a group. Otherwise, if you join a group that already has one or more admins, you can ask any of the existing admins to add you as an admin. If you’re a member of a group with no admins, you can become an admin by clicking Make Me Admin under Members in the right column.

Since about 2 months, I get truckloads of friendly comments indicating my blog is so wonderful that gets through Aksimet.
I’m not alone: one spammer posted his full spam script on Scott Hanselmans blog, and of course, Scott blogged about it: Exposed A Blog Comment Spammers Source Template
Not so cool.
Cool:

When you directly post a blog entry without scheduling, then WordPress.com adds this to your URL: &message=6&postpost=v2
It alters the left pane indicating how many posts you have done so far, but more importantly: suggests some tags based on the content of your post.
You can add this pane yourself by adding &postpost=v2 to your post editing URL.
So if your URL is something like this:
and you make it like this:
then you can add the suggested tags with ease.
I find that much easier than to use the “Choose from the most used tags” feature.

WordPress just posted a nice article on SEO for people that still don’t get that SEO is basically following common sense.
The most important bullets from the article:
SEO DOs and DON’Ts
Do:
- Regularly publish original content.
- Use a few precise categories and tags.
- Write for human ears.
- Build your traffic in smart, organic ways.
- Choose simple, meaningful post slugs.
- Create a descriptive tagline.
- Include keywords selectively.
Don’t:
- Start duplicate sites.
- “Stuff” your site with irrelevant, broad categories, tags, or buzzwords.
- Write with search engines in mind.
- Purchase or exchange meaningless “backlinks.”
- Buy into SEO fads.
- Worry too much about SEO at the expense of writing good content!
Two things I didn’t know about: WordPress generates two sitemaps for each site: both a regular XML sitemap, as well as an XML based news-sitemap.

Wow, it seems that the most popular posts have nothing to do with software development (:

The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2012 annual report for this blog.
Here’s an excerpt:
About 55,000 tourists visit Liechtenstein every year. This blog was viewed about 260,000 times in 2012. If it were Liechtenstein, it would take about 5 years for that many people to see it. Your blog had more visits than a small country in Europe!
