I’ve spent a few minutes this morning mucking with the PHP behind this blog for the first time in forever. Notes:

1. I still hate PHP. It so easily facilitates mixing code and output that even if you’re doing your best to avoid that kind of crappy behavior, you can’t help but do it.
2. Not fighting the flow allows for many more fun things to be added to one’s blog.
3. Albeit, there is much less control over the markup, and thus the presentation.
4. PHP still sucks.
5. I hate PHP

On the other hand, this should enable better integration between blog / Facebook / Twitter…and some day Google+ if only Google would open their API to read/write instead of read-only. It’s surprising behavior from them.

So, enjoy the “better” search, the Twitter feed, and better organized archives.
