Welcome to Lylium.org
Monday, January 30th, 2006Tada! Well, here it is. I gots myself my own place. Blogger was great while it lasted, but I felt that I needed a blogging platform with a little bit more power behind it, a little bit more customization. And let me tell you, Wordpress roxxors my soxxors. Here’s why:
- It imported all my old posts from Blogger before you could say “Import all my old posts from Blogger.”
- It is compatible with web standards.
- It has a well-designed, intuitive interface
- It was simple to set up but you can get just about as in-depth as you want with customizing it.
- And last, but not least… Cheap as free. What else can I say?
So anyway, this little adventure called Lylium.org that we are setting off on should be fun. I hope at least a few new people are reading this… and that many more will continue to come. That being said, I apologize for the unfinished-ness of much the content of this site. (A.K.A. ‘about me’ and all that other stuff up there ^^) I hate to move into a place while the paint is still wet, as it were, but I’m really too busy (and behind) with my other responsibilites to finish every detail before I move in. If I waited to continue blogging until I had finished all the pages, I wouldn’t be writing this ’til sometime in March. (If then.)
Why Lylium, some of you may be wondering? Well, that is a question for the FAQ or the About me page, perhaps, but I’ll give you the short answer.
It was a name that I made up and associated with myself when I would play make believe as a kid. And, actually, until last summer I had lylium.com registered for my personal site… which I never actually put up. When it came time to renew the name last fall, I decided to let it slide to save a little money. Well, needless to say, pernicious spam bots ate it up, and this time around I had to register Lylium.org. But that’s really okay… the name’s growing on me already. I hope you like it too.
That’s all for now! See ‘ya around.
