			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>At beginning of this year, I&#8217;ve founded a further company in cooperation with a colleague of mine: Timo Kl&uuml;ber. This week we&#8217;ve released our official website which you can visit here:<br />
<a href="http://www.klueberundkolb.de" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.klueberundkolb.de</a></p>
<p>The company acts as a software development agency in web products. We release standard web 2.0 software dedicated to public townships. The first web software is called <a href="http://www.estatemapper.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">EstateMapper</a> and represents specific land-use areas mapped on satellite pictures.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Version numbers defines different software versions in the development process. In a constantly software development, which takes a lot of years, it&#8217;s essential to define a fixed number which represents a release.</p>
<p>But what is a meaningful arrangement of such a version number? For projects developed by my own, I&#8217;m using this arrangement:<br />
<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1074" title="versionnumber" src="http://www.michael-kolb.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/versionnumber.jpg" alt="versionnumber" width="440" height="348" /></p>
<p><span id="more-1069"></span></p>
<p>But there are a lot more arranges you can use. Especially for bigger projects, with a couple of developers, the kind above will be insufficient. So a build number is always a good idea, like:</p>
<p><code><br />
&lt;major release&gt;.&lt;minor release&gt;.&lt;patch level&gt;-&lt;build number&gt;<br />
Example: 2.3.5-0041<br />
</code></p>
<p><strong>Major release:</strong> Very significant changes, for example a new engine or changed API&#8217;s.<br />
<strong>Minor release:</strong> New functions and features.<br />
<strong>Patch level:</strong> Fixed bugs<br />
<strong>Build:</strong> The amount of compiled versions</p>
<p>Please feel free to comment any different arrangements you know.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>CyStats is one of the most favorite statistic plugins for <a href="http://www.michael-kolb.co.uk/tag/wordpress/">wordpress</a>. It&#8217;s quite fast and supports several API functions. One of these functions is called getMostVisited, which displays the most popular posts.</p>
<p>In the past, this function must be coded manually inside sidebar.php. I&#8217;ve already written an article about line break problems and how to integrate this function into sidebar.php. Find the aritcle <a href="http://www.michael-kolb.co.uk/webdevelopment/cystats-getmostvisited-linebreaks/">here.</a>.</p>
<p>Now I&#8217;ve released a plugin, which gives you the opportunity to show <strong>most popular posts</strong> inside sidebar by using a widget instead of <a href="http://www.michael-kolb.co.uk/tag/programming/">coding.</a>.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.michael-kolb.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/cystats-widget.jpg" alt="cystats-widget" title="cystats-widget" width="345" height="247" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-751" /></p>
<p><span id="more-740"></span></p>
<p><strong>INSTALLATION:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Be sure, CyStats Plugin is installed &#8211; 0.9.8</li>
<li>Download the file, unzip it and copy to /wp-content/plugins/</li>
<li>Go to plugins menue in wordpress and activate it</li>
<li>Take a sidebar of your choice and configure the widget</li>
</ul>
<p>Please comment any problems &#8211; I will try to fix it as soon as possible.</p>
