Major website and blog updates underway

This is going to take awhile, but hopefully be worth it!

I started the rather lengthy process this evening/morning of completing redesigning and updating all my Internet webpages– and eventually my blogs. I want to present information in a simple, pleasing, and dynamic format. I’ve started with my primary domain: www.wesfryer.com. I welcome feedback and suggestions!

I have been comparing the relative benefits and feature sets of WordPress and Drupal as server-based blogging and content management systems. I have decided to give Drupal the nod. This comparative review as well as this extensive study (PDF) were the main bases for my decision. It looks to me like Drupal is more intimidating from a system admin point of view (but thankfully I have great assistance with that) but more robust and powerful.

We shall see– I plan to combine my Tools for the TEKS Updates blog with my primary blog (this one) soon using Drupal. RSS feed addresses will change, so stay tuned, but I will post them both places along with redirect/bounce pages where I can. 🙂
