I guess I just don't care for Yahoo!'s little section of the blogosphere. My main complaint? You cannot allow anonymous comments on your blog. Anyone wanting to comment has to go through the hassle of joining Yahoo! 360. Put simply, that blows. They seem to want to encourage "social networking" with this service. I just want to make any profound or inane comment that I find the time to write about, and see if anyone notices.

So, the big question was, where to go from here? Since I didn't want to do more than, oh, ten minutes of research on other blogging platforms, it boiled down to three choices: Blogspot, WordPress or Drupal. I've got a blog space reserved on Blogspot, but ultimately I'm a control freak. I wanted to build it myself. WordPress is a great blogging package, but I wanted the Romers.org site to eventually be a more general Romer wonderland. So, I built the site on Drupal, which I had already used to run the Knights of Columbus Council 4312 web site.

So, the new Quantum Brainfield is completely under my control. I installed the software...I'm backing up the database...it's running on my server, installed (with permission) on my employer's network. I AM IN COMPLETE CONTROL!!! BWAHAHAHA!!!
And, I am allowing anonymous comments. So there.
