Contemplating Modernization

I'm considering making the move from my hand-coded Creativity Journal to the blog system you are are reading now, which is provided by my ISP.

Advantages for this blog system:
Easy formatting - 2
Easy entry - 1
Better security - 3
Multiple blogs - 2
Multiple categories per blog - 2
Comments - 2
RSS - 3
Motivation for redesign - 1
Online site design - 2
Total advantages for new system: 18

Disadvantages for this blog system:
Uses an extra MySQL database - 3
What to do with the hundreds of old posts - 3
Total disadvantages for new system: 6
Total ads minus disads for new system: 12

Advantages for the old system:
Hand coded (prideware) - 1
Matches my site - 3
Cool indentations - 2
Phone compatible - 2
Total advantages for old system: 8

Disadvantages for the old system:
Poor security - 3
Micro$oft dependent - 3
Design getting old - 1
Total disadvantages for old system: 7
Total ads minus disads for old system: 1


Winner: Go to the new system.

Kind of a no-brainer when I look at it this way, eh?

Watch this space for future updates.
