I finally got .Text up and running on my hosting provider, and in a state that I considered acceptable. I skinned the main page with some of my own graphics, but haven’t got around to skinning each major section (I will eventually). The idea is to use .Text as my content management server. This way it should be much easier for me to update my website more often. I’m not leaving my old blog, and will continue to post my .Net only stuff there. I’m working on an update to .Text that should enable me to post my stuff there, but also get automatically updated here. This way if you want to read only my .Net stuff, you can still use the old blog, but if you want to see the new stuff like Longhorn, Avalon, SVG, music reviews and my other random babblings, you can subscribe here. The advantage of using .Text is that I can create major category feeds, and still be able subdivide them to an even more granular level. This way I can cut down on my perceived noise to signal ratio.
All of the skins and artwork (in Adobe Illustrator format) will be available for others to use, so if you are looking to get a free CMS, look into .Text, and you can use my customizations and graphics.
