I'm supposed to be this really good database person, and I have years of experience with PHP, ASP, .NET, SQL Server and MySQL, so why the hell haven't I written my own blog system yet? For goodness sake, I wrote ncane.com, didn't I?

Laziness.

That's going to change.

I'm frustrated with my ISP's level of security dictating how I must upgrade my blog whenever a new version of spb is released. What happens is that they run a cron job every night to update the security on my uploaded files. It means I cannot really add any new entries until the cron job has run.

So I've decided to roll my own. I've already modified spb to look like the rest of my site, so if I do my own, I can integrate it better into my site. Plus I can add new features when I need to.

Check back here in about a month – that's when I'll have some time after my exams.
