First blog post, and Spellchrome open beta

by Collin ~ February 16, 2009

So last week I bit the bullet and uploaded my site. Technically it’s in open beta. Besides needing player feed back, I still need to proof some pages. In the mean time I’ve been spending time setting up forums and this blog.

I think I’m getting the hang of Wordpress now, but it took a couple hours. I was missing some of the basics earlier, like how to edit my Blog Title and Tagline. It’s not that Wordpress is lacking for tutorials and documentation – quite the opposite. I think at first it is all a bit overwhelming. Part of me wants to find a good base theme, another part is trying to figure out how to edit those themes, and another part is confused about how pages and widgets work. Best thing to do is just mess around with it for a while and see what all you can do, which is pretty much what I did. They say the best learning comes from a state of confusion and then an Aha! moment.
