I’m currently thinking about writing my own blog-software. Yes, I know that there are hundreds of projects out there and some of them (like wordpress, which I currently use) are really good and have huge communities. But that’s not the point.

The reason why I’d like to do that is that wordpress is too feature-rich, too bloated for me. I don’t need 90 % of the functions it has to offer. All I want and need is a simple listing of stuff I’m currently thinking about or working at. Of course, there should be a nice interface for me to insert new articles, but I actually don’t need the ‘comment’-function. If someone wants to tell me something, he could drop me a line via e-mail too …

So, that’s why I’m thinking about creating my own blogware. It would be a nice exercise anyway. If I really complete this project I guess I’ll publish it under an open source license for anyone who wants to use or modify it for his/her needs.
