Welcome to my blog…
Finally, it’s here! This has been a long time coming but the blog is finally up and running and raring to go. There are still many issues to iron out but it’s presentation is at least acceptable on a basic level. I intend to come back and finish it over the coming weeks but for now I’ll say “roam free wee blog, to the hills!”
I’ve been toying with the idea of keeping a blog for some time now. I’ve used blogs in the past, even a WordPress blog, but I was never happy with any of them because they all sat in layouts that I had little or no control over. I’ve known for a long time that WordPress is customisable if you install it on your server, but I’m just not that technically minded, however simple it is.
As I’m looking to doing a bit of freelance web design work, I felt I needed an outlet to report on all my goings on and hopefully get feedback on the work I discuss. So, I called upon the help of a colleague to sort out all the MySQL stuff that I don’t know, a bit of jiggery-pokery and voila! the site was up. I’ve been having fun customising the blog to tie in with my new site design and I don’t think I’ve done too badly for a first attempt.
I’m a little tired from working for five hours straight so I’m going to go watch some telly before I go to bed. Leave me some feedback if you like : )
