[Ubuntu-SG] Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn) Beta Released

Mon Apr 2 10:43:46 UTC 2007

I have not tried using this plugin before. But it seems to look pretty good. Anyway, plugin in wordpress is fairly simple. putting it into the appropriate folder and do some minor tweak. According to their installation guide, it simply put in a small php code at the template.

Another plugin that might be useful will be a news rss parser (i think i get it correct) which simply extract news from other site and broadcast them on the ubuntu site. So we can have the official news, some forum post and other relevant stuff updated automatically.

What do you think?
