week we reviewed <a href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2009/01/11/plugin-review-referrer-detector/\">Referrer Detector</a>. This week we review a similar plugin called <a href=\"http://omninoggin.com/projects/wordpress-plugins/wp-greet-box-wordpress-plugin/\">WP Greet Box</a>.</p>\n<h3>What is WP Greet Box?</h3>\n<p>This plugin lets you show a different greeting message to your new visitors depending on their referrer URL.</p>\n<p>For example, when a Digg user clicks through from Digg, they will see a message reminding them to digg your post if they like it.

Once there are no more posts for that temporary import author, delete that author, and you&#8217;re done!</p>\n&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/gocomments/markjaquith.wordpress.com/243/\"><img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/comments/markjaquith.wordpress.com/243/\" /></a> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/godelicious/markjaquith.wordpress.com/243/\"><img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/delicious/markjaquith.wordpress.com/243/\" /></a> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/gostumble/markjaquith.wordpress.com/243/\"><img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/stumble/markjaquith.wordpress.com/243/\" /></a> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/godigg/markjaquith.wordpress.com/243/\"><img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/digg/markjaquith.wordpress.com/243/\" /></a> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/goreddit/markjaquith.wordpress.com/243/\"><img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/reddit/markjaquith.wordpress.com/243/\" /></a> <img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=markjaquith.wordpress.com&blog=316&post=243&subd=markjaquith&ref=&feed=1\" /></div>\";}i:12;a:7:{s:5:\"title\";s:17:\"Matt: Virgin Wifi\";s:4:\"guid\";s:21:\"http://ma.tt/?p=10059\";s:4:\"link\";s:33:\"http://ma.tt/2009/01/virgin-wifi/\";s:11:\"description\";s:367:\"<p>I&#8217;m on a Virgin America flight from Las Vegas to San Francisco and there&#8217;s wifi!

A <a href=\"http://www.phoenixheart.net/2008/11/referrer-detector/#custom_tag\">[custom tag]</a> can also be used in case you don&#8217;t want to show greetings on every post.</li>\n<li>Users can also put a tag (<code>&lt;?php if (function_exists(\'referrer_detector\')) referrer_detector(); ?&gt;</code>) into the template to show the greet box anywhere of choice.</li>\n<li>Excluded URLs can be specified in order to hide the greet box from specific users (like ones from Google Reader).</li>\n<li>Ability to include WordPress attributes like url, title, author, category etc. into the greetings.</li>\n<li>A STAT panel to get data reporting about the visitor statistic.</li>\n<li>Compatible with caching plugins, since the core is written and run in JavaScript which is normally not cached.</li>\n<li>Many installed-by-default entries (which can be restored anytime with one click). Upon installing, you will have these entries available:\n<ul>\n<li>9 rules</li>\n<li>Del.icio.us and Delicious.com</li>\n<li>Digg</li>\n<li>Gizmodo</li>\n<li>Google Search</li>\n<li>Lifehacker</li>\n<li>Live Search</li>\n<li>Reddit</li>\n<li>StumbleUpon</li>\n<li>TechCrunch</li>\n<li>Technograti</li>\n<li>TechRadar</li>\n<li>Twitter</li>\n<li>Yahoo Search</li>\n</ul>\n</li>\n</ul>\n<h3>Demo</h3>\n<p>The real way to test this plugin is to go to Google or Yahoo and then search for &#8220;phoenixheart.net&#8221; [<a href=\"http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=\">Yahoo! Search Results</a>] Click on the link to the site and check out the cool greeting image.</p>\n<p>I performed a <a href=\"http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=\">Yahoo! Search</a> and got this cool greeting box.</p>\n<p><img title=\"referrerdetector\" src=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/b2-img/2009/01/referrerdetector.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"referrerdetector\" width=\"500\" height=\"63\" /></p>\n<p>Google Search worked only when the referrer was Google.com and not Google.co.in which is default since I am from India.</p>\n<h3>Our Review</h3>\n<p>The plugin is easy to use and install. It comes with out-of-the-box support for 14 sites which should cover a good portion of the traffic that you would receive.</p>\n<p>This makes it a install and forget plugin unless you really want to bother about customizing it.</p>\n<p>The <a href=\"http://www.phoenixheart.net/2008/11/referrer-detector/\">plugin release post</a> is well detailed, complete with examples on how to go about configuring / editing the welcome messages.</p>\n<p>Adding a new entry is extremely easy. You need to enter details of the site where you are entering traffic from. The site has to be entered without the http or www e.g. digg.com or google.com.</p>\n<p>The AJAX interface makes it easy to add / edit referrers. I was able to Edit and Add at the same time without visiting a new page. My detailed testing did raise a few points, which I have listed under improvements below.</p>\n<p>Each tab has a small help section, so you’re not left clueless if you get stuck somewhere. The option for Excluded URLs is good since you can exclude those who are subscribed to online feed readers.</p>\n<h3>Suggested Improvements</h3>\n<p>Now, this is the important part, or I hope to think so! Some improvements I felt this plugin could use:</p>\n<ol>\n<li>Making any modification i.e. adding / editing referrers requires write permissions for a JavaScript file. It also requires the user to know how to chmod and also increases one step in the installation process. I’d be happier if everything was stored in the database.</li>\n<li>You can choose to deactivate certain referrers. Would be good if there was a checkbox for bulk actions, something like we now have in WordPress 2.7 management of posts, pages, comments, plugins etc.</li>\n<li>Like I mentioned above Google.com worked but not Google.co.in. Google Search is such that it automatically changes the default search engine domain based on your location. The plugin should take care of this automatically. It’s a humongous task to add all the individual domains. One possible solution could be a wildcard entry i.e. google.* or *.yahoo.com</li>\n<li>Default Message for domains not in the list of referrers. I believe the author plans on updating this in a future version.</li>\n<li>Lastly, not an important point but it would be great to see the plugin have its own page instead of post. I’m not a big fan of posts being the default location for a plugin or theme since your plugin/theme is permanent and so needs a permanent location on your site. It also helps in standardization when you release more than one plugin. E.g. in my case I have <a href=\"http://ajaydsouza.com/wordpress/plugins/\">all plugins on separate pages on my blog</a>. Again, this is a matter of preference.</li>\n</ol>\n<p>And, now it’s your turn. Have you been using this plugin? What has been your experience with it?

Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia\">Whistler, British Columbia</a>, is a very popular and beautiful ski resort in the Pacific Range of the Coast Mountains of Canada, only a few hours drive from Vancouver. In the early 1960s, a group was determined to bring the Winter Olympics to Whistler, and their dream comes true as Whistler is the host mountain for the <a href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010_Winter_Olympics\" title=\"Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic\">Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic Games</a>. This is your chance to visit and ski a world class mountain before the crowds arrive next year.</p>\n<p>I grew up in Seattle, a few hours south of Vancouver and Whistler, and skied all the mountains including Whistler and its sister, Blackcomb. It has changed a lot as it prepares for the upcoming Olympics, so this is a very exciting opportunity for me to visit not only a world class ski range, but also one of the most beautiful places in the world. </p>\n<p><a href=\"http://www.wordcampwhistler.com/\" title=\"WordCamp Whistler official site\"><img src=\"http://www.blogherald.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/wordcampwhistler.jpg\" alt=\"WordCamp Whistler\" title=\"WordCamp Whistler\" width=\"286\" height=\"118\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-9769\" /></a></p>\n<p>This WordCamp event is different from the others because while its focus is on WordPress, it&#8217;s also ideal for photography and photo bloggers. Not only is the area eye candy galore, there will be time for photography and some of the speakers will be covering photography, video, and photo blogging. </p>\n<p>As the event <a href=\"http://www.wordcampwhistler.com/2009/01/were-getting-close/\" title=\"We’re Getting Close!\">grows near</a>, WordCamp Whistler planners announced that there are still <a href=\"http://www.wordcampwhistler.com/sponsorship/\" title=\"sponsorship spots available\">sponsorship spots available</a>. A <a href=\"http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=32574477561\" title=\"Facebook event that you can sign up to\">Facebook event</a> is up. The <a href=\"http://www.wordcampwhistler.com/speakers/\" title=\"line-up in the works\">list of speakers is great</a> and <a href=\"http://wordcampwhistler.eventbrite.com/\" title=\"the time to pick up your tickets\">registration is going fast</a> for this limited seating event. They&#8217;ve planned photo walks and skiing events along with the WordPress fun. </p>\n<p>The speakers are also top notch, covering some interesting WordPress and blogging topics, including:</p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http://lorelle.wordpress.com/\" title=\"Lorelle VanFossen\">Lorelle VanFossen</a> - WordPress Power Blogging Tips</li>\n<li>Andy Peatling of <a href=\"http://buddypress.org/\" title=\"BuddyPress\">BuddyPress</a></li>\n<li>Dave Olson of <a href=\"http://uncleweed.com/\" title=\"uncleweed\">uncleweed</a> - Are you Worthy?</li>\n<li>Dale Mugford of <a href=\"http://bravenewcode.com/\" title=\"BraveNewCode\">BraveNewCode</a> - WordPress On The Go</li>\n<li>John Biehler  - How To Sex Up Your Blog With Photos And Video</li>\n</ul>\n<p>For those who registered early, there was a discount rate for the hotel, so check to see if it is still available. I&#8217;ve checked with <a href=\"http://www.kayak.com/\" title=\"Kayak travel discounts\">Kayak</a> and found hotel rooms are still available starting at $99 and going up, though staying at the <a href=\"http://www.fairmont.com/whistler/\" title=\"Fairmont Chateau Whistler Resort\">Fairmont Chateau Whistler Resort</a> puts you right near the skiing access and is a top class hotel. </p>\n<p>Transportation to Whistler currently is by vehicle, bus, or train. Flights come into Vancouver, and Whistler is a 2-hour drive along the Sea to Sky Highway (Highway 99) from Vancouver, or two to three hour bus or train ride.</p>\n<p>There are a variety of <a title=\"Tourism Whistler transportation options\" href=\"http://www.tourismwhistler.com/www/plan_your_trip/transportation/\">transportation options</a> for travel to Whistler.

In the early 1960s, a group was determined to bring the Winter Olympics to Whistler, and their dream comes true as Whistler is the host mountain for the <a href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010_Winter_Olympics\" title=\"Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic\">Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic Games</a>. This is your chance to visit and ski a world class mountain before the crowds arrive next year.</p>\n<p>I grew up in Seattle, a few hours south of Vancouver and Whistler, and skied all the mountains including Whistler and its sister, Blackcomb. It has changed a lot as it prepares for the upcoming Olympics, so this is a very exciting opportunity for me to visit not only a world class ski range, but also one of the most beautiful places in the world. </p>\n<p><a href=\"http://www.wordcampwhistler.com/\" title=\"WordCamp Whistler official site\"><img src=\"http://www.blogherald.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/wordcampwhistler.jpg\" alt=\"WordCamp Whistler\" title=\"WordCamp Whistler\" width=\"286\" height=\"118\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-9769\" /></a></p>\n<p>This WordCamp event is different from the others because while its focus is on WordPress, it&#8217;s also ideal for photography and photo bloggers. Not only is the area eye candy galore, there will be time for photography and some of the speakers will be covering photography, video, and photo blogging. </p>\n<p>As the event <a href=\"http://www.wordcampwhistler.com/2009/01/were-getting-close/\" title=\"We’re Getting Close!\">grows near</a>, WordCamp Whistler planners announced that there are still <a href=\"http://www.wordcampwhistler.com/sponsorship/\" title=\"sponsorship spots available\">sponsorship spots available</a>. A <a href=\"http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=32574477561\" title=\"Facebook event that you can sign up to\">Facebook event</a> is up. The <a href=\"http://www.wordcampwhistler.com/speakers/\" title=\"line-up in the works\">list of speakers is great</a> and <a href=\"http://wordcampwhistler.eventbrite.com/\" title=\"the time to pick up your tickets\">registration is going fast</a> for this limited seating event. They&#8217;ve planned photo walks and skiing events along with the WordPress fun. </p>\n<p>The speakers are also top notch, covering some interesting WordPress and blogging topics, including:</p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http://lorelle.wordpress.com/\" title=\"Lorelle VanFossen\">Lorelle VanFossen</a> - WordPress Power Blogging Tips</li>\n<li>Andy Peatling of <a href=\"http://buddypress.org/\" title=\"BuddyPress\">BuddyPress</a></li>\n<li>Dave Olson of <a href=\"http://uncleweed.com/\" title=\"uncleweed\">uncleweed</a> - Are you Worthy?</li>\n<li>Dale Mugford of <a href=\"http://bravenewcode.com/\" title=\"BraveNewCode\">BraveNewCode</a> - WordPress On The Go</li>\n<li>John Biehler  - How To Sex Up Your Blog With Photos And Video</li>\n</ul>\n<p>For those who registered early, there was a discount rate for the hotel, so check to see if it is still available. I&#8217;ve checked with <a href=\"http://www.kayak.com/\" title=\"Kayak travel discounts\">Kayak</a> and found hotel rooms are still available starting at $99 and going up, though staying at the <a href=\"http://www.fairmont.com/whistler/\" title=\"Fairmont Chateau Whistler Resort\">Fairmont Chateau Whistler Resort</a> puts you right near the skiing access and is a top class hotel. </p>\n<p>Transportation to Whistler currently is by vehicle, bus, or train. Flights come into Vancouver, and Whistler is a 2-hour drive along the Sea to Sky Highway (Highway 99) from Vancouver, or two to three hour bus or train ride.</p>\n<p>There are a variety of <a title=\"Tourism Whistler transportation options\" href=\"http://www.tourismwhistler.com/www/plan_your_trip/transportation/\">transportation options</a> for travel to Whistler.

So we wish all our readers a Happy and Prosperous New Year!</p>\n<p>Our little blog grew slowly but steadily in the last year and our editors, authors and well wishers have made it possible for us to not only provide you with the most useful and up to date WordPress news, but we have been able to organize and support our Annual <a href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/pluginblog/\">WordPress Plugin Competition</a>, have been able to visit a couple of <a href=\"http://central.wordcamp.org/\">WordCamps</a> around the US and have started a couple of <a href=\"http://weblogtoolsvideos.com\">new</a> <a href=\"http://pressitfor.me\">services</a> around WordPress. If you want to know what the team is up to, be sure to check out the <a href=\"http://midout.com\">Weblog Tools Collection Crew LifeStream</a>.</p>\n<p>As always, we have been trying to improve our content, add more features and services, be good citizens of the WordPress world, all the while trying to increase our readership and our distribution.</p>\n<ul>\n<li>We have brought back the <a href=\"http://es.weblogtoolscollection.com/\">Spanish Version of this blog</a>. It was originally started as a small side project along with a German version but we found it difficult to find human translators for them. This new version is translated by a paid translation service called <a href=\"http://www.icanlocalize.com/blog-translation.html\">ICanLocalize</a> and is using their custom designed WordPress plugin which we helped test and implement. I have to say that after having had such a hard time with translators in the past, I was very apprehensive of any such relationship. But Amir Helzer and his team of translators have not only been helpful, but they have shown dedication and care that is rare in this world of online business. The service is completely automatic and both comments and posts are automagically submitted for human translation through the plugin. Though the service is not cheap, it gives our blog a nice edge. So if you would like to read this blog in Spanish, please head over to <a href=\"http://es.weblogtoolscollection.com/\">WeblogToolsCollection Español</a> and subscribe.</li>\n<li>We have made some changes to the <a href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/wp-content/plugins/oiopub-direct/purchase.php?do=banner\">advertiser requirements</a> on this blog, much of which drastically reduces our revenue. We now require that all our advertisers who want to promote WordPress plugins and themes, release their themes and plugins under the GPL or a GPL compatible license to be eligible to advertise on Weblog Tools Collection and related properties. Existing ads will be forced to expire and will not be renewed. We will also not link to any work from Premium Theme and Plugin authors that do not release their themes and/or plugins under a GPL or compatible license.</li>\n<li>Jeff Chandler has restarted his <a href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/category/wordpress-weekly/\">WordPress Weekly</a> podcast under the auspices of Weblog Tools Collection and judging from the download numbers and the listener particpation numbers, it has been a resounding success. You can <a href=\"itpc://recordings.talkshoe.com/rss34224.xml\">subscribe to WordPress Weekly via iTunes</a>. Jeff has had put together some <a href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2008/12/19/2hr-interview-with-matt-mullenweg/\">fantastic</a> <a href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2008/12/20/wordpress-gone-social-buddypress/\">shows</a> for us already and we are excited to see what the new year holds in store.</li>\n<li>Ajay is re-starting his &#8220;A Plugin A Day&#8221; or <a href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/category/apad/\">APAD WordPress Plugin Reviews</a> which is always a lot of fun and is received well by our readers.

So we wish all our readers a Happy and Prosperous New Year!</p>\n<p>Our little blog grew slowly but steadily in the last year and our editors, authors and well wishers have made it possible for us to not only provide you with the most useful and up to date WordPress news, but we have been able to organize and support our Annual <a href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/pluginblog/\">WordPress Plugin Competition</a>, have been able to visit a couple of <a href=\"http://central.wordcamp.org/\">WordCamps</a> around the US and have started a couple of <a href=\"http://weblogtoolsvideos.com\">new</a> <a href=\"http://pressitfor.me\">services</a> around WordPress. If you want to know what the team is up to, be sure to check out the <a href=\"http://midout.com\">Weblog Tools Collection Crew LifeStream</a>.</p>\n<p>As always, we have been trying to improve our content, add more features and services, be good citizens of the WordPress world, all the while trying to increase our readership and our distribution.</p>\n<ul>\n<li>We have brought back the <a href=\"http://es.weblogtoolscollection.com/\">Spanish Version of this blog</a>. It was originally started as a small side project along with a German version but we found it difficult to find human translators for them. This new version is translated by a paid translation service called <a href=\"http://www.icanlocalize.com/blog-translation.html\">ICanLocalize</a> and is using their custom designed WordPress plugin which we helped test and implement. I have to say that after having had such a hard time with translators in the past, I was very apprehensive of any such relationship. But Amir Helzer and his team of translators have not only been helpful, but they have shown dedication and care that is rare in this world of online business. The service is completely automatic and both comments and posts are automagically submitted for human translation through the plugin. Though the service is not cheap, it gives our blog a nice edge. So if you would like to read this blog in Spanish, please head over to <a href=\"http://es.weblogtoolscollection.com/\">WeblogToolsCollection Español</a> and subscribe.</li>\n<li>We have made some changes to the <a href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/wp-content/plugins/oiopub-direct/purchase.php?do=banner\">advertiser requirements</a> on this blog, much of which drastically reduces our revenue. We now require that all our advertisers who want to promote WordPress plugins and themes, release their themes and plugins under the GPL or a GPL compatible license to be eligible to advertise on Weblog Tools Collection and related properties. Existing ads will be forced to expire and will not be renewed. We will also not link to any work from Premium Theme and Plugin authors that do not release their themes and/or plugins under a GPL or compatible license.</li>\n<li>Jeff Chandler has restarted his <a href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/category/wordpress-weekly/\">WordPress Weekly</a> podcast under the auspices of Weblog Tools Collection and judging from the download numbers and the listener particpation numbers, it has been a resounding success. You can <a href=\"itpc://recordings.talkshoe.com/rss34224.xml\">subscribe to WordPress Weekly via iTunes</a>. Jeff has had put together some <a href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2008/12/19/2hr-interview-with-matt-mullenweg/\">fantastic</a> <a href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2008/12/20/wordpress-gone-social-buddypress/\">shows</a> for us already and we are excited to see what the new year holds in store.</li>\n<li>Ajay is re-starting his &#8220;A Plugin A Day&#8221; or <a href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/category/apad/\">APAD WordPress Plugin Reviews</a> which is always a lot of fun and is received well by our readers. We have received hundreds of applications to be considered for APAD and will be starting to publish them very soon.</li>\n<li>We will hold another WordPress Plugin Competition this year.
