Over to wordpress

I have decided to move over to wordpress although bblog is pretty easy to use it has a problem with spam comments - which I think I will get with wordpress at some point but I think as wordpress is a bit more mature I think it might cope a bit better.

There seem to be copious amounts of plugins around for it although it is not as easy to customize as bblog which uses Smarty. I find Smarty templates alot easier to understand than embedded php although there isn’t really that much in it. As my boss said today when we were talking about Smarty and php, php is a templating language already so it shouldn’t really need it’s own templating system.

Anyway I have wordpress up and running now - I think I might need to tweak some of the css and templates but it seems to be holding together pretty well for now!
