Here I am

Monday, August 14. 2006

As almost everyone has got a blog today, I just thought I needed one, too. Well, here it is. I wonder however how long I am motivated to blog regurlarly...

After having tried Bluetrait first I finally took Serendipity as weblog software because it also runs with the PHP option "register_globals" activated (although it recommends turning it off, and so do I) and I have no access to the php.ini file to turn it off. There seem to exist other methods to perform this (.htaccess?), so this was not the only reason not to use Bluetrait. The major one being that Bluetrait also forces me to use a WYSIWYG editor to write blog entries which I dislike (at least I could not find an option to turn it off).

I still have to figure out how to integrate my other pages like the Term parser and the links into this one before I finally make this blog the main site of arbur.net. And I still need a category where posts like this belong to...

Update: I just created an internet category for this post, although I doubt that many entries will end up in this section.

Hi Armin,

I'm the lead developer for Bluetrait. Thank you for trying out the program and posting your thoughts.

We'll aim to add the option to disable the WYSIWYG editor in the next version.

The program is still in beta, we're aiming to release version 1 in the next few weeks. This version has a lot of fixes and improvements.

Thanks again for your feedback.

Did you take a look at b2evolution and WordPress. B2evolution in particular looks quite similar to your weblog (on the outside at least).
