WordPress to the rescue

      Comments Off on WordPress to the rescue

Spent about 30 minutes trying to identify a replacement for Apple’s blog server…needed to move the blog off the XServe (to free up a development/test environment). Not knowing much about blogs other than how to read a few of them, I think I was fortunate to stumble onto WordPress…installed it on our Opteron-powered 64-bit SUSE Linux box (timesync) and now it seems to be working fine. Many more features than Apple’s offering (based on Blojsom).

Tied the RSS feed back to the LSO home page & tweaked MARS news to update the change as well.
