I guess there’s no ’perfect’ weblog tool. I’m not sure that I’ve ever seen a weblog done with pMachine. It’s amazing how fast this change seems to have happened. I suspect Movable Type’s features actually aided the transition.

Speaking of Change…
... you’ve probably already noticed some.

We’ve changed from MovableType to pMachine to run the backend of the website. Nothing wrong with MT. pMachine just has a few features that are real nice to me.

One feature you’ll notice right away is the integrated forums (click on the ”Discussion Boards” link to the left). They aren’t as nice as phpBB, but integration is nice. You don’t have to register to view the website or leave comments. But, if you choose to register, one username will work for the entire website.

The look & layout will continue to change over the next few days. It’s pretty boring now, but I’ve got plans to spruce it up a bit. Here’s your chance for input. Tell me what you like. Tell me what you don’t like. Tell me if anything isn’t working. Tell me if my color choices aren’t working.

I do have one special request. I would really like a nice grahpical masthead for the website. But, graphics are not my thing. If anyone would like to help out, let me know. [Sakamuyo]
