This blog is my first experience in the world of PHP and WordPress. Dynamic content is what the web is all about, and as WordPress is the easiest Content Management System out there, it seemed like the perfect introduction.
There are many reasons for using WordPress: it’s free and open source, it’s user friendly, it has themes to make your blog look like a regular site, it’s search engine friendly and standards compliant. Now I need to explore more themes and plug-ins to test this out.
As I am a student of new media/web design, and a former print journalist, my blog will focus on issues relating to those topics, with some general nerd stuff thrown in, too (I am a sci-fi fan!).
I am already commenting about these issues on Twitter, now I can go over 140 words
