Blogging guru chips away at Great Firewall of China
HONG KONG (AFP) — How would you react if one million of your customers were suddenly stopped from coming into your shop? Matt Mullenweg just shrugged.
The 25-year-old American is the founder of Wordpress, software that allows computer users worldwide to easily create their own websites, or blogs.

Overnight, one million Chinese visitors to the various blogs disappeared, accounting for about a quarter of all traffic to the site.
…
His decision not to pander to China contrasts sharply with other companies that have agreed to the country’s extensive Internet controls — often dubbed the Great Firewall of China — in the hope of gaining access to what is now the world’s biggest online market.

When designing Word Press, do you ever find yourself wishing you could change the size of the tags. Make them smaller or BIGGER if you prefer.
Very simple.
1) Open to the wp-includes folder.
2) find category-template.php
3) Open it up (best to use Word Pad) and do a search for wp_tag_cloud
4) This is above a function where you can change the font sizes.
Notice how I changed the largest size to 16 (from 22).
Only change the number. Do NOT change the coding. In my case, I changed it from 22 to 16 to shrink the superlarge tags.
