So this is the third week of Video Wednesday, and it seems to be something good. This week I got some videos to give you a good laugh. “Everytime you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing. — Mother Teresa” I found this quote this week and it does mean a lot, I am a person of constant laughter and smiles. So here I present you – smiles!

WpVote was created on August 2008 by Jean-Baptiste Jung to be the “Digg site for WordPress fanatics”. The site quickly grew but few problem appeared: First, the Pligg CMS which was used at the time wasn’t easy to modify and had a few annoying bugs. And secondly, the site was constantly spammed and everyday, hours of spam deletion were due.
At the fall of 2008, due to spamming issues, WpVote was kind of abandonned.
“I first thought about selling it, but I was sad about forgetting a good idea I had. This is why in February 2009, I decided to give WpVote a second life by rebuilding the site.
As a WordPress fanatic myself, I finally managed to create a “digg-like” app within WordPress. Currently, WpVote runs 100% within WordPress. WP core haven’t been modified, all the new functions are custom or from the excellent TDO Mini Forms plugin.”
I hope you’ll enjoy your visit here at WpVote. Don’t forget to suscribe to our rss feed so you’ll always stay tuned with what’s hot in the WordPress community.

Somewhat surprisingly to many, Armenians and Turks lived in relative harmony in the Ottoman Empire for centuries. Armenians were known as the “loyal millet”. During these times, although Armenians were not equal and had to put up with certain special hardships, taxes and second class citizenship, they were pretty well accepted and there was relatively little violent conflict. Things began to change for a number of reasons. Nationalism, a new force in the world, reared its head and made ethnic groupings self-conscious, and the Ottoman Empire began to crumble. It became known as “the sick man of Europe” and the only thing holding it together was the European powers’ lack of agreement on how to split it up.
World War One gave the Young Turk government the cover and the excuse to carry out their plan. The plan was simple and its goal was clear. On April 24th 1915, commemorated worldwide by Armenians as Genocide Memorial Day, hundreds of Armenian leaders were murdered in Istanbul after being summoned and gathered. The now leaderless Armenian people were to follow. Across the Ottoman Empire (with the exception of Constantinople, presumably due to a large foreign presence), the same events transpired from village to village, from province to province.
While living in some type of harmony in the Ottoman Empire, the Armenians lived as second classed folks. They were given limited freedom due to the religion they had. “In the Ottoman Empire, in accordance with the Muslim dhimmi system, Armenians, as Christians, were guaranteed limited freedoms (such as the right to worship), but were treated as second-class citizens. Christians and Jews were not considered equals to Muslims.” As the Ottoman Empire caved, and it was getting taken over – they lost more and more of the so call freedom. They were getting treated worst and worst, when WWI started – Turkey accompanied the Central powers, and thus started the mass slaying of the Armenians.
