Opening post

After years of developping my own website in Macromedia Adobe Coldfusion, it was time to leave those sort of things 'to those who do it best'. I tried to make my own blog, and, somewhere along the way, it worked (surprisingly). Although it was nice to use something you created yourself, it lacked some of the cool features the 'professional' blogs have. I just didn't have the time to keep developping those things. So, I downloaded 'Wordpress', and unfortunatelly it needed PHP as a scripting engine. The alternative would have been 'Movable Type', which uses Perl. I'm a n00b at both those languages, so I decided to take the most popular scripting engine... PHP. Thank god, that I can use both Coldfusion AND PHP on the same webserver, so I can still do a little development in Coldfusion.

The nice thing about Wordpress is (and I'm sure Movable Type and all the others have similar features) that you can add plugins to the blog. I'm not yet familiar with them (hey, I got this one operational last night 8) ), but additional features, and some redesign, will be on their way in the next couple of weeks.

I will also try to "port" (and translate :( ) my original post from the 'old' Redelijkheid.com website to Wordpress. So that the old info won't be destroyed. In the mean time, the "old" blog is available under /oldblog.
For the time being both my public websites (redelijkheid.com and switched2mac.com) will be pointing to this blog. This means that you might even catch some of my adventures on the Apple platform. Actually, I'm writing this on my Mac Book Pro :-)

So, stay tuned.
