As I finished LonCon earlier this month I decided it
would be nice to start a little blog. I had previously made an Icelandic
website (einarleif.is) so I had looked at a few platforms and decided to go
with Wordpress in the past. This website is however with Blogger. So why did I
change platforms?
Simple answer is time. I had planned to blog and
setting up a new Wordpress site takes time. I would have needed order a new
domain name and inquire about a few things from my friend (who has worked in
web design), like:
- How do you run two Wordpress sites on the same
computer?
- Should a go with a new domain provider or keep
using the Icelandic company (can I even book a .com with them)?
This would mean that I would not start blogging for
weeks, maybe even months (procrastination is king). Also what if I didn't like
blogging? Or just did a few posts and then nothing more?
As blogger is a much simpler platform then Wordpress
that would be up and running in seconds I decided to at least start using them.
Later I might set up a fancier Wordpress site but until then this is more than
enough for my needs.
