Rebooting with Wordpress

December 10th, 2007

Phil’s blog is back and now with super power, zingnatious, Wordpress juice. I have been a loyal, devoted Movabletype evangelist since 2003 until now when I must declare it… broken. Movabletype 4 is just trying too hard to be Wordpress and it plain isn’t, no matter how hard it’s dressed up…  and these days its just impossible to use. Wordpress, on the other hand, is simple… light and fun and a real pleasure getting this new site setup.

    What were your Movabletype frustrations, Phil? You’re at least four years ahead of me. I’m just about ready to appraise Movabletype having come round to the idea that my programmer’s text editor is over-used somewhat.

    Hey Rob - Its a pain to rebuild the site every time you change something, the spam filter is TERRIBLE compared to Wordpress, and when something breaks it sreally difficult to fix… I ended up spending all my time maintaining my blog instead of posting my ideas. Also, WP is really well supported in themes and plugins and is very easy to hack yourself.
