Wordpress is My New Favorite Internet Application.
Holy Toledo this software’s great. Granted, the premise of the tool is pretty straight forward: Accept text and post it in order. No big deal, but the Wordpress folks have really done a good job of highly polishing the tool into something that’s a pleasure to work with. I’ve built a couple sites with it, including this one, and will be building a couple more shortly.
Generally, it takes about ten minutes to install the software, configure a fun theme, configure the settings and plugins, and create a database at the ISP. Another twenty configuring AdSense and you’ve got a compelling, money earning blog built. That’s time well spent.
