I’ve gone Tagtastic

Thanks to the glorious Ultimate Tags Warrior plugin I’ve gone absolutely tagtastic! Not just my own blog either, I’ve taggified the OpenCouchSurfing.org Blog as well. It’s been a day of taggification I tell you!

It’s all part of my blog upgrades after the discovery of K2. The other little addition that I copied from the most excellent MediaWiki (the software that most famously powers Wikipedia) is the new little icons next to all links that open in a new window. So no longer shall I be issuing the new window warnings, now it’s all automatically taken care of thanks to the wonders of CSS3.

For those interested in the technical aspect, the code is thus:

div#current-content a[target ="_blank"] {
        background: url(external.png) center right no-repeat;
        padding-right: 13px;
        }

This also requires the image external.png to be in the same directory as the stylesheet. You can get the image from Wikipedia here.
