“ARTS for MINDS” goes live featuring Orna Shneerson Pascal’s Art work.

My understanding is that this site is going to focus among other things on the link between are and the mental wellbeing & health.

It is interesting as Ornas work has been purchased by health organisations before

These are early days so keep an eye for developments on the site.

Useful WordPress Plugins

I find the following plugins useful as a set of default plugins for a WordPress installation:

ultimate-google-analytics – requires an analytics account (free) and really is the ultimate SEO plugin;
google-sitemap-generator – generates a Google Site map (useful with a Google Webmaster Account);
platinum-seo-pack – Manages Title tags and meta tags along with loads of other SEO tools;
revision-control – controls (limits) the number f revisions you accumulate;
WPTouch – Provides an iPhone interface to your blog.
Akismet – Comes with WordPress – activate it – it works and really stops a lot of comment spam.

I load all of these by default with WordPress installations. The SEO ones really enable you to manage and monitor the visibility of your site and to track traffic.

Enjoy!
