Lem and I spent all night yesterday customizing his WordPress blog. I finally convinced him to tweak his Google adwords and bring in some of the affiliate advertising that he's had in his back pocket. His blog is looking sweet as pie. Go visit him and say hello!

WordPress templates are actually quite easy to customize, even if you are building a template from scratch. They have invested in their product development and provides their users with all these cool plug-ins free of charge. I seriously believe Blogger is going to take awhile before it catches up. Blogger Beta is getting mixed reviews. I, for one, will stay in the old Blogger until I there is no more.

I decided not to use WordPress on any of my projects because I only want to learn one CRM software - Joomla. I just never got around to it. After last night, I thought there's never going to be a good time to get cracking. So, I dowloaded the software and I am on page 20 of the how-to manual that's about a million pages long. No brain numbing stuff yet. I only got far as chapter one, but it looks like I made the right choice. I hear that Joomla is not going to be disappointing so I guess it is worth the time and investment.

And I have a big project just waiting to happen!

    wow..Joomla and all :) You are starting to sound real geek by now. I bet it's not as easy as wordpress otherwise half the world would be using it by now.

    When you say "tweaking google adwords" how do you mean it?

    I've recently tried a joomla to setup a site for a friend. I find it confusing as can be. I also find it hard to edit and make things look the way I want them to be.

    I'm considering just taking a WP install and turning it into a site...

    Golbguru, I think I passed real geekness a long, long time ago. Coming from a very strong math background, when you've seen one code structure, you've seen them all. Lem and I were just doing a "tweaking session" to optimize readability of his blog and advertisement optimization.

    Lestat, that's probably why joomla comes with a manual a million pages long..... WP is actually great when it comes to fast install.
