Greetings. This will be the place to check out all my life-happenings while I spend the next six months of my life in Manchester, NH working for the Howard Dean for President campaign. Honestly, I won’t have time to keep in touch with half of you half as much as I would like during the campaign, so this simple blog will have to do.
Speaking of this blog, I just spent the past two hours of my life installing this Moveable Type weblog template–time I should have spent finishing up my thesis (it’s almost done, I swear). Well, the two-hour install was not really all Moveable Type’s fault (though they certainly share some blame)–the template has a lot of bells and whistles which took quite a long time to upload to the web server I’m using (hosting by ICDSoft).
I’ll try this template for a while, and then see if I want to use my own MySQL/PHP system; I think the biggest issue for me will be customizability. Clearly, with my own system I could do whatever I wanted…I’ll just have to see if change in flexibility + knowledge gained – opportunity cost – potential frustration > 0.
Right, back to thesis.
