Themes

The theming engine is remarkably simple and supports a few different formats for the templates. I've installed a few stock templates but I'm looking for some better code. The current theme I am using has an HTML table for block level content, not really something appropriate for a true Web 2.0 site. It will be easy to roll my own templates though so I'm satisfied with how things are going.

Authenticated Email for Newsletters

I work with a lot of individuals who run their own businesses and I am often surprised by the variety of email addresses from these clients and service providers. Nearly all of them have their own websites, but yet only some of them actually use their website address as their email provider as well.

Back in the early days of the Internet I think this practice was less common. If you had a domain, you used it. It is a good promotion strategy for your website if people can find your product information, right?

So what happened?

Falling in love with wikis again

From time to time I have taken on technical documentation projects and enjoyed one particular stint where I had to use a Wiki to do so. It has been far too long. Recently I installed a wiki on my server as a makeshift document sharing system.

The setup was relatively easy, I checked out a few websites, figured out the easiest, most debian of ways to do this. Kwiki was my answer. I checked the features: minimal. This is software zen. Add what you want, or take nothing more.

What's less is more
