Bit the Bullet
Well I’ve bitten the bullet, jumped with the rats and followed the sheep and ditched Movable Type in favour of WordPress.
I’ve got no real good reason to as I haven’t read the new licence yet but the upgrade to 3.0 looked harder than I wanted to spend time on and, now that I’ve installed (painlessly) WordPress, I’m quite impressed with it. It allows posting by e-mail obviating the need for any plugins and whatnot, and it was very trivial to add category images (ala Slashdot style).
I’ll probably play with the style a bit, but I think I’m more likely to make the main site more like the blog in terms of style.
