new.site.stuff

now that i have been fiddling around with this site, i am forced to dig into the internals to get stuff working the way i want it to (it's why this site is messy and things move around a lot. hehe). anyways, that was the main reason why i moved here in the first place.


it was a trade off between

multiply:

• ease of use
• practically unlimited storage space
• privacy
• integration
• ready made everything
• and other perks

and

blogspot/other blog oriented hosts:

• flexibility
• customization
• possible chump change (which i will write about soon)

so to get back into topic, i'm liking tweaking this place. call me sadistic but there's something about writing posts in html that gets me all dorked up. embedding stuff, formatting, modifying scripts others made. haha bad! (haven't done a full javascript yet but the codes are legible enough to mess around with). i realize i'm a complete noob with webpages and shit but i'm slowly learning by doing.

once i get comfortable enough, next would be to get my own custom html/css template for that perfect look and feel. my only concern is that i'd have to do some graphical editing and that would require photoshop skills and some artistic inclination, both of which i don't have. hehehe.

and if all goes well, i could then move on to hosting the entire thing on my own domain, or at least setup a dedicated server to host media and other resources... but that's way.. way.. way.. way........ way.. way into the not so near future.. way! hahaha
