## Descripción

Tired of boring lists of recent posts?

Taking advantage of the date to color algorithm used in the [Kaleidoscope theme](http://www.ikirudesign.com/themes/kaleidoscope/),
the Mini Quilt plugin provides a more colorful way of presenting your recent (or
random) posts. It also provides–by virtue of the carefully selected color–your readers
with implicit information about when those posts were written. Your widgetized areas
have never been so good at letting your visitors know what other wonders your blog
offers.

## Instalación

 1. Upload the `mini-quilt` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
 3. Put the Mini Quilt sidebar widget wherever you would like it.
 4. (Optional) Customize the dimensions of your quilt with different patch sizes and
    layout, as well as specifying whether or not you want titles printed inside the
    squares or not.

## FAQ

#### So what?

A fair question. The Mini Quilt isn’t going to cure cancer or make you rich. But,
because it’s a visually interesting way for you to showcase your latest works, or
a set chosen at random, it could make your blog readers more aware of other things
you’ve published that may interest them, and thus make your blog a bit «stickier»

#### How do the colors work?

They’re derived from the time of year. Deep winter days are solidly blue, spring
is the green time of year, and fall is orangish tones. (These are Northern Hemisphere
seasons if you were wondering.) Essentially, every single day of the year has a 
subtly different color, almost imperceptibly subtle. But if, like most blogger, 
your publishing is spaced by a week or more and erratic, you’ll see very interesting
colors side-by-side. (For more on this, I’d encourage you check out my blog, which
has a number of posts relating to this algorithm I created.)

#### What’s a Mini Bar?

A Mini Bar is essentially the same as a Mini Quilt–a visually interesting way to
link to your recent (or random) content in your sidebar–but it’s stylistically the
easiest was to show post titles (to non-hover-aware users and browsers). You can
build one with an instance of the Mini Quilt plugin in (the directions are right
in the widget control box) or you can use the standalone plugin.
