A New Biscuit Tin

With a tear in his eye and a pocket full of biscuits, WebBiscuit has decided to finally leave home and stride out for pastures new.   Moving onto WordPress, Biscuitechnology has unfortunately been placed on the shelf to go stale.

While designing my own blogging/CMS system was fun, moving onto an established and popular technology means I can now concentrate on writing software.  Server and website maintenance is a fun but time-chomping process.  With the valuable time saved I’ll now be able to write more code, blog and eat more biscuits.  Everyone wins.

Over the next few days, I shall be migrating/retiring content from the oringinal site.

Things I need to do

  1. Find a suitable colour theme
  2. Find a good wordpress editor
  3. Become quite wordy
  4. Port over old content
  5. Redirect domains

Oh!  And here is a first for the site: you can now leave comments.  Any advice for the first points?

    I use Windows Live Writer as my wordpress editor. Although I often find my self using Notepad++ to edit some html manually for code samples. But writer does a great job.

      I did have a look at Live Writer and it seemed quite nice, although it struggled a bit with code samples so I lost interest. Might have another look though.
      To be fair the WordPress web editor is unexpectedly good and until it does something catastrophic I’m happy to use it!
