TheHighlands.com – Updated
This morning I discovered TheHighlands.com had been hacked to redirect different site. As I’d not kept the site nor Wordpress updated I wasn’t really surprised, but it serves as a valuable lesson to keep applications updated. To plug the gap I’ve replaced the entire site with my gallery of Scottish Mountain Photography.

Wordpress E-Commerce
Have just launched online booking for Skinny Tyres using the Wordpress E-Commerce plug-in. It comes will a reasonable set of configurable options meaning it can be pressed into a variety of uses. By default it integrates with PayPal and Google Checkout, but for a fee of about $200 it can be tied in with other payment gateways such as Sage Pay. Will be monitoring its usability before unrolling onto other sites.
