Not My Base

The truth is, I’ve spent so much time working on the new MSUOTC website that I just can’t bare to touch any more html, so for now, I’m back to using a CMS (wordpress). The plan was to make my own site from scratch, not only because I decided Drupal was rubbish for what I wanted, but also simply to demonstrate my web dev skills. I’m also fed up of just having that blasted “coming soon” splash screen, every morning I wake up with things I want to write about, only to get frustrated at not having a site to publish them on. I have great stories to tell of running along Hadrian’s Wall firing off an FN Minimi at wannabe lieutenants, kiting accidents rendering me unconscious on Brancaster Bay, and nightmares of blood, gore and penguin/goose hybrids stealing orange tango from McDonalds. I want to show off my fractal terrain, Lego robot and “Top Secret” projects, and get peoples feedback.

So far I’ve tried Joomla and the later version of Drupal, I thought both were a bit bloated, so now I’m trying out WordPress. So far it looks like it’s onto a winner, perhaps I could show off my skills simply by making plug-ins for this.. we’ll see.
