After trying to customize MovableType, I remembered a couple of things:

1. I hate Perl.
2. MT’s theme system is very hard to understand and customize.

I decided to go with WordPress. It also utilizes a MySQL backend with PHP on the front end. It’s slightly slower due to each page being dynamic. (My host isn’t too snappy.)

But it is extremely customizable and I can actually understand how it works enough to customize it to my satisfaction.

Etc, etc.

Anyway, I’m going to spend more time writing and less time redoing my website from now on.

Yours,
Clifton
