This theme is barely usable, but I’m tired of using someone else’s theme, so I figured I’d upload it. I built it on top of my Sanitary Wordpress theme this afternoon. It really has no features at all, and I’m not super excited about it, but at least my blog doesn’t look exactly the same as 30,000 other blogs now. I’m sure it will evolve over time.
Have any comments or suggestions regarding the design? Comment below!

This is the second day of my blog experiment. I have chosen to use Wordpress as my publishing platform due to it’s combination of functionality and ease of use. As of this writing, I have just finished installing Wordpress and importing yesterday’s post. I’m still using the default Wordpress theme and I haven’t even changed the default tagline. As I update, modify, and improve this site I’ll explain everything that’s happening and how you can do the same to your site. The most important aspect of blogging is quality content and I’ll do my best to provide just that. So now I’ll wrap up this post and write another about how to install Wordpress.

Today is June first. No one knows I am writing this here. It will probably be a few days before anyone reads this at all. It will probably be quite a few more days before anyone cares.
I am a web designer and developer and this is my personal experiment. There are so many blogs floating around with instructions on creating a successful blog. I plan to test their theories and write about what happens. I will share the steps I’m taking, why I’m taking them, and how it turns out.
I want this to be a helpful place. Please ask questions (as soon as I create a contact form). I’d love to help you find the answer. On the other hand, if you have a successful blog of your own, I’d love to hear how you did it.
That’s all for tonight. More to come tomorrow…
