Statically Yours

Migrating from wordpress to octopress I’m not an avid blogger but like everyone else, I have a blog which I casually write about life and programming. Being hosted by wordpress, it was an out-of-the-box solution and comes with a lot of bells and whistles. However, for a programming blog, it has some significant shortcomings: Conflation of content and style. A Wordpress post is written in a weird combination of HTML markups and custom wordpress macros, which means you have to rely on their WYSIWYG editor to generate the correct markups, which means you can’t use your favourite editor to write a blog post.
