Complete Stats v0.1 Released
I’ve decided to release a pre-full version of my stats plugin, so I can get some feedback from people who use it and etc.
You can find more information about the plugin over here.
Basically, with feedback from this, I’ll make v0.5, and then probably a full proper release when I feel that the plugin is fully [...]
Another Plugin?!?
Well, it’s in progress.

Hm, WP Super-Cache, eh?
“Help Your Server Survive a Good Digg-ing”
