I’ve just transitioned my blog over to Wordpress 1.5, and I must say, it’s a dramatic improvement over the last version I tried. They’ve separated the layout and the structure in such a nice way that I can do things like, for example, not allow comments or have categories or different authors without having to hack the hell out of things. I’ve spent all of today getting the layout correct, and with some extremely clever PHP and Javascript hacking I am pretty sure that all existing URLs continue to work.
Now, the real question is if I can get a nice client-side solution so that posting photos isn’t quite a pain. Hopefully it won’t be a big deal, but I’ve saved my old blog setup just in case I have to revert.
