There are some amazingly good blogs out there focused on the use of Drupal and other open source tools. You don’t need to hear from me about the newest web tools – you have ReadWriteWeb and Mashable for that, among others. But for now, and until I change my mind (I like to keep my options open), this blog will be inactive.

WP as a blogging tool rocks my world, and although I certainly could move blogging to Drupal, since I seem to be becoming somewhat of a Drupalista, it’s just not worth it.

I’ll have to admit to my preference for Joomla, although Drupal is growing on me more and more.

Free your data, and your mind will follow.
