First off, thank you for sticking with me. I’ve really done a fantastic job of ignoring my blog for the last several months. In the mean time, I’ve been spending most of my time over on Twitter where I’ve amassed a nice little following.
In the meantime, there has been a lot of thinking going on in the background as I try to decide where to take my personal site — and brand — next. A lof factors are going into this but I decided in summary:
- Drupal was too ambitious for my personal site, I really like the system and remain a big fan, but I don’t have the time to devote to making it work exactly how I want here.
- WordPress lets me get up and moving quickly, it’s also typically the first CMS to get plugins developed for new social networking sites and services, this makes sure that I can try things out quickly and efficiently.
- On a daily basis I wrestle with form vs function, and for my personal site — as in much of my work — I want this to work for you and me. If it doesn’t function well, there might as well not even be a pretty design on top.
Stay tuned, there’s much more to come here. (I’ll update this post or post again when most of the changes are in place)
