I thought its time for another change of theme, new year so a new theme. K2 is a great theme but its bulky. Tarski is lightweight so loads faster. But it doesn’t have support for plugins like Time since, Related Posts and Extended Live archives. It took some time to customize the plugin and it has come out beautifully. I have always felt the need of a bottombar in K2, which Tarski has.
People would generally browse through the posts and then you would ideally expect them to read few more of the posts so I have added Related posts after the body of individual posts. The bottombar then has the latest posts so that the first time readers get to explore the blog, ideal for someone who gets the majority of his visitors from search engines. Tarski doesn’t have Ajax comment support but it has this wonderful Ultimate Warrior Tag support. The search tag option lets you browse posts with multiple tags (try clicking more than one tag in the tag cloud ). This theme is also available for wordpress.com users. Tarski has excellent support and its definitely poised to become the next K2!

WordPress 2.0.5 has been released but I am wondering whether to play with the installation or not. Installing WP 2.0.4 was just a one click install for me, thanks to dreamhost. And plus I fear I might mess things up so I am happy with WP 2.0.4. I might think of taking the risk when they introduce certain features which I would fall in love with. I really can’t think of any feature right now but I would love if someone can customize K2 a lot…like changing font size of posts (I had tough time figuring that entry_content in the style.css is the damn place to change)..or customizing background colours and the bgcolours of the sidebar..I would love to see different colours for different links..categories or blogroll.
They are calling the new release by Ronan. Matt gives the reason
We’re breaking the tradition of naming releases after jazz musicians to congratulate Ryan Boren on his new son (and first WP baby) Ronan.
The changes are listed here
