Pi

I constantly tweak my website, hoping that some combination of layout, design and colors will suddenly propel me into becoming a better writer. My tinkering of the website does not go from 1 to 2. Rather, it jumps back and forth between many ideas. A blog, a 'homepage', a "bliki":bliki, a minimalitic tumblr etc. "Pi":Pi seems to be a better change tracking sequence. 3.142...

I wrote my own CMS using Django and imported all the entries from the old blog running on Wordpress. Still I didn’t like the idea of having to use a browser window to write anything. Yaki looks to be what I consider to be an excellent balance between static and dynamic content, file-system based, fast, hackable and opinionated (uses relatively obscure Snakelets application server) system. To top it all, its written using Python.

I’m going to give it a serious try. So far, it is looking good. Considering I’ve written at-least three paragraphs after three months of hiatus.
