Hello world!

What a predictable title for my first entry. But after all these years deliberating about how useful would be for me to blog, I’ve finally started. It always looked to me quite imperative to have a blog if you want to look trendy in the world of the interweb - that’s why I waited till most members of my family have one first!

But seriously now, if you want to become a successful blogger you need to keep writing good quality stuff and often. For that you need plenty of time so it won’t happen here.

Then it’s popularity. I’m not looking for this blog to be read by the web community - though they’re invited. It’s just a way to make some order in my mind with the stuff I’m passionate about. So if after six months blogging nobody left a comment it’s absolutely fine. I won’t feel bad about it.

Getting a bit technical now. The blog is powered by the mighty WordPress which simply put it’s the right tool for the job. This latest version, 2.5, features a clean and easy to use interface which the people from Happycog seem to be responsible of.

I’m a fan of Drupal for creating web apps most of the time but the time it took me to set a blog running in WordPress helped me to decide. Drupal is good for blogging but WordPress was built for it. So a Drupal fan but a pragmatic person!

The look and feel of this blog will come at a later stage. For now clean and simple.

And yes, I’ll blog about web development related stuff mostly and now and then some other subjects as I go by. It’s going to be a good exercise for my writing skills which are great in Spanish.

Let’s see.
