I recently watched a video on a script someone authored to generate their personal blog. The script will stub in new articles etc. It was a pretty interesting idea. It got me thinking, maybe it's about time I move my blogs out of Blogger to a site I put together myself. I've hosted my own blogs in the past maybe it's time to be better about maintaining my online presence, if nothing else, for career related work.
As I've mentioned before, I really need to get up to speed in web development anyway. It has been a long time. I've mainly been working with back end code recently. Lots of Oracle, some C# console apps, some shell scripts etc.
I would like to build something from scratch, even though the idea of using WordPress or similar is VERY tempting. I love having the ability to add functionality just by installing a plugin or two. I usually grab a basic WP theme, and rebuild the GUI completely. However I would like to build the backend as well.
So even though it may lack the power of WordPress or similar frameworks, I may have to give it a go.
