Out with the old, in with the new.

So I guess it’s safe to say that I’ve finally been converted to WordPress. I’ve been trying for so long (more than two years) to say no and it was finally mandated at work that I start using it. One of our clients was very persistent on using WordPress as a content-management solution. I have to be honest though, it’s unbelievably easy to use. And I don’t mean that it’s just easy to update your website content.. It’s easy to create templates (sorry, themes) for it too.

I’ll probably post a lot of links about helpful websites and code snippets that have helped me do what I need to do in WordPress. I already have a few in the back of my mind that I’ve come across while I’ve been developing the current theme for my site (at the time of writing this post, the theme is shades of gray with green and blue accents).

I’ve also started porting some of the posts from my old website to this new system. The information doesn’t link exactly, so there are a lot of broken links and blurry images, but I should have it fixed soon. I’m sure there are more things I could say about it, but I really want to get the new WordPress-powered site/blog up tonight so I’ll leave the rest for another post.
