The blogging software is coming along pretty well, today at around 26798 bytes total in one script, not including the CSS and data files. Here are some interesting things about this, specifically for people who are interested in the mechanics behind stuff.

• Written in PHP
• Flat files - does not require a SQL database
• Agressive caching for static-like page performance, if the web page is not expected to change.
• Picture uploading and embedding (not pretty, but it works ok)
• Comments
• Tagging

I'm really not sure what's next with this. I may slowly transform this into a website CMS type system, but, for now, I'm happy with it as a simple and tiny blogging system. I think I'd like to add some static type web pages to this, in order to clean up my website, which has fallen into disrepair as of late. [Update: 2008-09-28 ... it now has static pages, too!]

I won't vouch for the security of this, but security through obscurity will work fine for now. If you have any questions or ideas, add a comment or send me an e-mail.
