Hi folks.

After sometime of gut-wrenching thinking of how to make use of this domain, Pen and I finally decided to use our trusty ol’ WordPress.

You may have seen the previous incarnetions of this page. I initially tried to use Drupal but the there were not much themes around to play with. I tried to use it and shrug off some aesthetic concerns but I have no time to overhaul the theme that I want. Don’t get me wrong, Drupal is a great CMS tool. TWIT is even using it.

Next I tried the Mambo system. Mambo has tons of great themes. So many that you would want to build every theme to your site. Problem I had with Mambo is that it was ‘too bulky’ for the purpose of this site. Great components, great plugins, great themes but it was too much. I admit, if I ever push through with Mambo, it will be a pain in administering it. Oh, another reason I dropped Mambo is because their themes/layouts are still in table‘d format. CSS is the way to go now baby. :)

So there. Here is the final product. WordPress still gets my vote.

I hope you’ll not get tired of visiting the site even though Pen and I still maintain separate blogs.

See you around kids.
