Impending Switch
Try as I might, I just can’t put up with Movable Type. Sure, it’s just as functional as Wordpress, but for a number of reasons it is driving me insane:
- Rebuilding. Sure, it’s fine for people running a small site, or with too much time on their hands (but I am neither) and it takes an unbearable amount of time to rebuild just when I change one template tag
- Lack of any decent theme – Kubrick (the default Wordpress theme) is better than anything I have come across for MT
- Plugins (lack of)
- The template tags, and the templates themselves, are damn near impossible to understand, let alone modify
As a result, I’ll be switching to Wordpress over the next day or two, so there might be an outage or two during that time.
