			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have tried blogging before, and failed miserably. Most of the time I think it is because I do not have much to add on top of the Engadget/Gizmodo/Tech Blog noise that accompanies every announcement. I also have a hard time sitting down and generating thoughts for original content.</p>
<p>Part of the problem is making an online home out of this blog. Registering a domain is the easy part. Picking a publishing platform is fun, with WordPress, Moveable Type, Joomla, and a few others offering complete solutions. I have always like WordPress, and the community surrounding it, so I naturally picked that.</p>
<p>Next up was the theme. I have tried several, and will eventually try my hand at creating my own, but for now this is the one I like the best for what I am doing. I just need to put in the time to customize it, make it less generic and more about what I want it to represent.</p>
<p>Today I fixed most of the links in the header (still figuring out how Archives is going to work). I need to get the pictures that accompany each post to be less generic, and then design a decent header picture. So that is my current plan. Header picture first, post pictures second, and then the Archives. Let&#8217;s see where this takes me. You never know, it could generate a fairly entertaining WordPress rant.</p>
