I’m moving over to this more zen-like theme for now. I liked the creamy coffee cup but I didn’t like the size of the image or the coloring. Too clean and bland. Like Canada!

This also spells the end of the line for Movable Type for me.

I really enjoyed starting my blogging journey using Movable Type - it’s a great beginner’s blog and easy to learn.

Wordpress has me captivated, though. I love the simplicity and the fact that it is built natively to generate pages dynamically. It has great anti-spam control (knock on titanium) and seems to be more compatible with the open source stuff that’s out there.

I would probably still recommend that Apple Computer buy Movable Type for it iBlog application (I know nothing about Apple’s plans, just a big fan wondering when .Mac will support blogging). On the other hand Wordpress is more open source-y. Well Apple will do what Apple thinks its customers want.

In the meantime, I want Wordpress.

Oh, and this theme has a few CSS errors. Or maybe my XHTML has errors. So excuse them while I clean things up.

Movies are broken again. Fun!

I really like this theme. I think it would be best for Apple just to go with an open source blog tool rather than buy one. I think buying software companies is over. Software wants to be free, and the cooperative model seems to work really well for Apple. I think Macs being virus free is due more to all the hard work of the BSD people, than the Apple people. But the ease of use is all Apple. Cooperation!
