So, I started using WordPress.

I have tried before, but never felt quite right. This time I braved the learning curve and dived right in.

The problem is that I want to control everything. I don’t know how WordPress was built because I didn’t write it. I don’t know how it’s templating works, because I didn’t write it. So I was wary…

This time I have taken a good look at the templating system, and manage to recreate the simplistic look that I had on my site beforehand. I am confident that I could also put more into as time goes on, but for now I am happy that it works.

So a blog eh? Well, I expect this one will be about code and what I’m currently writing, and my thoughts about it. I tend to write in PHP although innovation’s in other languages also pique my interest. On the last incarnation of this website, I had a link to some useful pieces of code that I had written, so I will create some static pages for those. Not very much, a couple of jQuery plugins, and some older Javascript Utilities that I used to use before jQuery but are pretty good all the same.
