fplanque: dev blog

All right, so what's the best excuse to blog something once in a while and prove I'm not dead?

Maybe a nice blog switch...

"My Internet home is now somewhere other than wordpress! And that somewhere is called: http://wherelaurinblogs.com

I’ve bought my own domain name, loaded up b2evolution blogging software, and now have the best website in the world ever!"

From the Free Website Project:

"Last week I wrote a post recommending the switch to WordPress without trying the newer releases of b2evolution, ans since then I’ve had to eat my hat more than once. When you’re a blogger, it can be tempting to rely on a combination of other common knowledge, popular opinion, and intuition. The problem, as we all know, is that many times all three of these things fail."

"Before you rush to Blogger or WordPress, why not take a serious look at b2evolution. I’ve got four alliterative words for you: community, customization, and clean code."

Read the whole post!

b2evolution is available as a Gentoo Linux package.

This from Hari's "Figured out a few things in b2evolution":

"b2evolution rocks. Much better than WordPress in my opinion because it is so configurable. This along with a far, far superior widget management system, easy multi-blogging and a powerful, yet intuitive templating system, I am so glad I moved to b2evolution."
