WordPress vs. Movable Type

I've been poking my nose in and around WordPress just to get a sense of things.

Personally, I prefer “just in time” technologies, which WordPress uses (i.e., you don't have to rebuild your site when you make changes, because the site is automatically generated at each request from a browser), in particular, it uses PHP.

I like Movable Type because this site is already using it; I also like it because its templates are just that: templates. Since WP uses PHP everywhere, its templates are actually PHP files, which is kind of a weird impedance mismatch (apologies to Simon).

WordPress is free, but so is Movable Type for the uses I have for it.

Siiiigh. I wish i weren't on neurontin. My brain works at least 50% better without it.

Good. Lord. God. Of. Biscuits.

Two-plus days without internet connectivity at the house.

Thank the Goddess for hills (for line of sight) and open Airport networks...but it all required braving the cold and strong winds and standing at the gas grill out back while making sure the iBook didn't fall over.

Comical, except for the utter trauma of no internet!
