I have been writing online since 1993/4. I started off on bulletin boards and later moved into the realms of HTML. I used the name Musak on Monochrome back in 1993. I have always believed in the power of personal publishing to add to our society; maybe even to add to the power of democracy.
In the period since then, I have experimented with various sites but it wasn’t until Movable Type that I was able to easily manage a great deal of content and this site became, what is known as, a blog.
I have been involved in the development of several sites of the years (some large, some small) but it is only now that there is the software easily available to bring the content management of the larger sites to the smaller ones. Although this site is a useful creative outlet for me personally, it is also a little playground to allow me to look into the capabilities of the software (web log analysis, referral logs and content management to name but a few).
I have been looking for a way to experiment with combining several instances of Movable Type but, for the life of me, I have been trying to find something. And today I have launched Man of the Moment – which is using another Movable Type weblog to create and I am trying to integrate some of it into this site.
Man of the Moment is, therefore, a technical experiment and may not last very long. Of course, if is also a shameless way to get pictures of good looking men on the site. I suspect the quality of the men may determine how long I keep it going! So get a look while it lasts!
On this day…
