Hello WordPress!

Welcome!

This page is turned alive after consideration over numerous other blog technologies and services available.

Some factors I think would make a good blog engine.

  • Content - Should a easy way to express, in words, images, or other multimedia formats available (maybe WYSIWYG editor, inline image uploading, realtime spell check, updating). Access control, submitting via IMs, email, mobile.
  • Customisable - These days I think all blogs should be able to. Skins, templates, modules, extenisble for programming and adding new ideas and features.
  • Calendar - Should provide good navigation and provides good view of Timeline.
  • Tagging - Linking to topics, categories, keywords linked to webbies, and tracings.
  • Independance - A way to share your data regardless of platform, tools, software, technologies, and infomation should never be restricted, hindered or trapped in any particular format.

WordPress is chosen because its free (GPLed), looks neat and simple, with capabilities I need. I’ll try you out for a while.
