A techie blog and a news blog

It's amazing all the stuff that goes into developing websites. Development can often seem snail paced slow the average user. People often do not want to know what pains a developer goes through to build a website. All a user cares about is .. well using the website. There is nothing wrong with this of course.

What I'm getting at is this. I created the bridal vine wordpress blog a while back and try to make regular updates as to the status of there website. I use do my best to reduce the geek speak and speak directly to my users needs.

I've decided to keep the wordpress blog exactly the same asit has been. I will update users of new features and changes to the site. I will post press releases and release news about as well.

What I would like to do is convert this blog to give more nuts and bolts type of stuff from a developers perspective. Since I love talking tech, it will allow me to chronicle some of the more techie stuff about the site. For example I could talk about how I am moving towards an MVC structure and spent most of the weekend rebuilding the vendor page stripping out the "view" and working them into smarty templates. I can also talk about the numerous restructures and re-factoring that goes on the daily. I can speak to fun stuff like that.

Hopefully, one or two people might actually find this stuff interesting, but of course I assume most users would not really be into this type of information; hence the two blog idea.

A tech blog and a news blog.

By the way here is a link to the new wordpress blog in case you want to check it out. http://www.thebridalvine.com/blog.

I plan on better linking it in the future. Until next time..
