Hi there
I’ve decided to give this blog another go – this time on my own web space, with wordpress after lots of recommendations
I started off with a blog on blogger, only to find that there was another blog there using the same title & theme as mine by someone else, and if you google searched for my blog you got there’s which had been going way longer!
But that wasnt the reason for me not posting much – i had far too many forums where i was posting, and not enough time to use the blog
And I also tried using blogger to host it on my webspace with success, but i didnt like it, so i stopped
Fast forward 4 months and since everyone seems to have a blog in some shape or form, i think i need to get up to speed in all this. I also seem to have a lot to rant about these days, so no time like the present.
So who am i?
I’ve been around the internet a while now – i’ve been a member of many forums – though i’ve only really stayed with a few of them for the long run
I now have a forum on my own site, and a wiki to go along with it [not any more damn spammers]
I do all my web page designing by hand, though i have used most of the apps out there from the cheap end of Pagemill or Front Page through to Dreamweaver. I’ve just become a stickler to detail and like good, well formed code. After i learnt XML and XHtml initially to understand Apple’s Mac OS X preference files, i started to see why i should redo my website in xhtml, and how much neater it looked & behaved.
Gone were the font tags, in came CSS. Gone were all the unnecessary javascripts, and finally, the site conformed to W3C guidelines and passed their validator
But anyway, enough introductions, welcome the new blog
I will need to spend some time setting everything up here as it all looks a bit white and lacking in everything
