So I converted to WordPress.
I wrote a conversion script to ease the pain of converting all my data from Serendipity, no images survived though – I could hack it, but I can’t really be arsed.
Why WordPress? Well, it does the job and it has a nice administration and authoring system. Codewise I’m not at all happy with the abuse of extract(), but I can learn to live with it.
Why not Serendipity? Well, to be honest, I like how wordpress feels, it feels like a complete product and it’s still in very active development. I have nothing against Serendipity, but I’m confident WordPress is the right tool for the job I need done at this time.
