I vote for the latter.
I initially wasn’t able to find the right way to convert my personally crafted web design into a WordPress (open source blogging software) theme… and now I have. While this blog is new, it was always my goal to use WordPress because it gives me more ability to customize and enhance it.
Plus WordPress produces “valid code” meeting web standards. I’d previously taken the time to write my hand coded (home page, contact page, etc.) pages XHTML 1.0 Strict and it annoyed the heck out of me to go to validate my source code produced by Blogger and find 277 validation errors in it.
I like it. Blogger was good. It’s what got me interested in web design in the first place as opposed to merely writing, which I’ve always enjoyed. This has much better features.

I’ve been putting thought into that one off and on for a few days and get error after error.
Well, to console myself I entered a few search strings into Google. I read about the different problems people have with comment databases using software hosted on their own servers.
I was reading one post by Loren at Incremental Blogger, a business tech blog. Loren’s comments stopped working in July of ’06. When I tried to leave a comment today, they’re still broken — over one year later!
The reason I wanted to comment and ended up sending Loren an email instead is because I came across this gem:
