New blog, same content, now on Drupal

The old blog in Wordpress is now gone and I will be using Drupal from now on for my blog. The main reason of this is because I work with Drupal, it's also more flexible and overall I feel more comfortable working on it.

So far, besides the change on the platform there are not so many changes, but let's list them:

Design

Even cleaner, brighter and more attractive. I like to keep it simple, I love blue tones and my personal blog is the perfect excuse to use them.

The Work section also sports some nice selectors and some jQuery AJAX godness.

Platform

I had enough with Wordpress. It's an excellent blogging platform but doing anything more than just a blog requires to "hack" a lot.

Drupal on the other hand offers me more flexibility, more security and more control.

Work

My projects will now feature a full section and that is the most important change so far. Some projects will feature a full case study and others will just show a brief description plus the level of involvement I had on the project.

What's coming

Code. A new section I'm planning where I can show my OS projects. It's still just an idea and I will be elaborating it in the upcoming weeks.
