The IdBlog Version0.01

WordPress is a remarkable tool. I downloaded the first version in February and set it up on this site. It worked fine in the default mode, but I had some trouble configuring the theme I had chosen. Other projects came up, so I put the whole thing aside for awhile.

Fast forward eight months, and the worldwide collective that is WordPress has cycled through a few more versions, added a ton of new plugins and themes and further refined the product. So I grabbed version 1.5.2 and got to work.

I won’t say it was easy to configure — any content management system has its own idiosyncrasies that must be negotiated — but WordPress was always logical and well structured.

So thanks to Ryan Boren and Matthew Mullenweg, the coders who got this project rolling, for a really excellent new tool.
