Sporkblog Launches!
After a few months of working on and off on a blog source that follows my sensibilities, Sporkblog has reached its first release. It isn't a stable 1.0 yet, but it's good enough for me to start dogfooding it.
Sporkblog is a very simplistic and intuitive blog source that allows a blog to turn into a more traditional style website, with the added flexibility and power of the weblog publishing methodology. The navigation of Sporkblog is easily manipulated; you create tags as you create content. From there, you can assign certain tags to be displayed in the navigation, and any posts under the "Navpage" tag will automatically be displayed in the navigation under "Pages".
This allows your typical Contact, About, and other similar pages to be displayed in a page all to themselves while maintaining the section-based content heirarchy. Couple it with the power of tags and you have a website whose structure can fit anyone's needs.
In time, I hope to better develop Sporkblog and provide another alternative for blogging and website publishing.
2022-06-10 Update: This is the oldest post on the blog. I've kept it to remind me of where the site's purpose came from, and to appreciate how far it's come since then. Looking over these old posts has given me a fresher perspective on my own body of work.
