So I was thinking about whether or not going to a blog format for Neimeyer.org was "giving up". Part of me (the geekier part) says that there is pride to be had in coding everything top to bottom myself and part of me says getting it done is more important.
I guess the parallel would be like wanting to build your own car to get to the grocery store. There will obviously be people that DO build their own car... but more likely than not you just buy one off the shelf.
I'm really not sure which has won yet. At this point I think it's still a compromise. I've got MattAndHarry.com that I can put up little php projects and other snippets of whatever and I've got here for anything that's more "brain dumpy". I'm also looking at using blogger as an "archive" for a collaborative project. More on that later as I figure out the details.
