I will no longer feel guilty about not using WordPress. I made an honest to God attempt to try and switch. I read the documentation, I went through the help forums, and I even moved each post one-by-one. But when it came time to design my own WordPress theme, it was yet another hurdle and I was tired of setting up a blog instead of just doing what I wanted to do which was blogging.

Champions of WordPress can sing about its ease of use from now till the end of the Internet, but it’s not easy. I support open-source but I don’t support things that make my life more difficult. Blogger may not be perfect but it serves its purpose.

Also, a giant screw you to Firezilla. It’s a fickle, pain-in-the-ass FTP client with poor navigation (it’s called a back-button; implement it). I’m sticking with SmartFTP.

And I don’t feel bad about going back to Blogger/SmartFTP because I gave both of those other programs an honest shot and that’s all that anyone can ask of anything.

But now that the nightmare is over, prepare for the big articles. I’m halfway done with my recent batch of reviews, the Top 10 of 2006 WILL go up before tomorrow night’s Oscars as well as my WILL WIN, SHOULD WIN on the major categories.
