			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.revolutiontheme.com/" target="_blank">The Revolution Theme</a> by <a href="http://www.briangardner.com">Brian Gardner</a>, one of the best premium Wordpress themes out there, if not the best, is going open source from 1st of October 2008.</p>
<p>Gardner will team up with Jason Schuller ( Of Wp-elements.com) for the upcoming revolution project. All future and present themes will be released under the <a href="http://www.opensource.org/licenses/gpl-license.php" target="_blank">GPL </a>License. The decision comes after Gardner and Schuller met Matt Mullenweg and Toni Schneider in San Francisco recently.</p>
<p>Gardner initially labelled the  Revolution theme Project X, and released it in <a href="http://www.briangardner.com/blog/a-revolutionary-wordpress-theme.htm" target="_blank">August 2007</a>. It took the wordpress theme world by storm, and became so successful that Gardner even launched his own affiliate program for the theme.</p>
<p><span id="more-76"></span></p>
<p>The theme currently costs $59.99 for a single user license and $149.95 for a multiple user license. Gardner has 10 Revolution themes, all of which can be seen on the official website.</p>
<p>There will be options to purchase customization, tutorials and support though.</p>

<p>The image can be seen on the official Google.com Page.</p>
<p>As part of its 10th anniversary celebrations, Google has launched Project 10 raised to 100th. The San Francisco giant is offering $10m in prize money to five ideas that have the potential to change the world. The eight categories in which Google has solicited offers are :-</p>
<p>Sustainable energy use</p>
<p>Environment</p>
<p>Health</p>
<p>Education</p>
<p>Shelter</p>
<p>Encouraging communities</p>
<p>Building opportunities to help people better provide for themselves and their families.</p>
<p>&#8220;Everything else&#8221;</p>
<p>Submissions close on October 20, following which Google employees will pick their 100 favourite ideas. The public will bring the 100 down to 20, and an advisory board will announce the final five winners somewhere in February 2009.</p>

<span id="more-64"></span></p>
<blockquote><p>I wouldn’t be surprised if new PageRanks started showing up this weekend or so.</p></blockquote>
<p>And PR has indeed updated, ladies and gentlemen. Some people have lost their PR, while others have seen an increase. On the face of it, it seems that many inner pages have been awarded Page Rank on this update.</p>
<p>Check whether your PR has updated by going to digpagerank.com ( My personal favourite for checking PR). There are loads of others, but that tool is my favourite.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Automattic Inc, the company that developed the Wordpress blogging software, has announced the acquisition of Colorado based commenting system Intense Debate.  The amount involved was not declared either by Intense Debate CEO Tom Keller or Toni Schneider, Automattic boss. Intense Debate has said that it will be going back to an invite only system in the immediate future until the integration is complete. The announcement was made on Tuesday (Techstars demo day at Mountain View, California).</p>
<p><span id="more-62"></span></p>
<p>Intense Debate and Wordpress have a similar base ( PHP and MySQL). The Intense Debate brand will remain separate though.</p>
<p>Intense Debate was founded in October 2006 by Josh Morgan, Jon Fox and Isaac Keyet, and was accepted into the Techstars program in June 2007. Development of the comment system began in June, and the company went into a private beta in August 2007. It became open to the public in October. ID&#8217;s main rivals include Disqus, Js-Kit and Sezwho. Morgan left the company, but not before appointing Keller as CEO.</p>
