This blog was created with the free blogging tool WordPress and since this is my first time using a content management system of any type, I thought I’d note my first impressions with the hope of encouraging others to follow along.

So far I’m quite impressed with WordPress’s sheer number of options, overall power and most importantly, its ease of use. Installation was a snap since my web host has something called Fantastico Auto-Installs which makes installing applications like WordPress as easy as logging in to your web host’s Administration panel, clicking “Fantastico” >> “WordPress” >> “New Installation” and setting yourself up with a nice new strong password.

Once setup and secured, try generating some content. Make a post, write a page, add a comment or two… woohoo… you’re blogging. But alas, your blog looks just like everyone else’s blog, and if you’re just like everyone else, you’re driven to be different. So what you need to do is go out there and download a theme that suits your style.
