@bluescientist - Thank you! I find myself getting more philosophical recently, perhaps because I am about to begin studying it.

@bluescientist - that would not be nice for me to spoil the ending! Rather, she impressed me with her writing and all the twists and turns!

WordPress, You May Be Next . . .

   Posted by: Jeffrey   in Blogging, Technology

I have always liked the functionality in Movable Type, and have been thinking about upgrading to the new version. However, I have had to hire developers to do the last installs, and even since then have had countless problems. Let’s see, my trackbacks do not work, I cannot change themes, I cannot install new plug-ins, and on and on. The new version looks great, but in the list of upgrades, I don’t see anything that I can’t live without (not to mention I don’t think I should have to pay a developer for what should
be simple things that should work by default).

While I have always been suspicious of open source software, it seems most people who are bloggers and don’t use blogger or TypePad have already migrated to WordPress, which now has the same attention to plug-ins and widgets as does TypePad (which I do not want to pay for). I think I will switch to WordPress.

I do like the template I am using; I wonder if there is a WordPress version of it?
