Manic Monday: Heart ::Sigh::

I Heart Microsoft.

I did my due diligence. I did the research. I made my pros & cons lists. Ultimately I chose to self-host my web site with Wordpress.org for my blog. Then I searched high & low to find a theme that I liked. I installed it. I upgraded it once almost immediately, which was intensely stressful on my nerves and not at all uncomplicated. Now I have to upgrade the software for the second time in a month due to what Wordpress says is a high security issue. Multiply that times two as I also have a Cat Blog.

I’ll be honest with you.  

I’m a tad ticked.

I’ve authored my commercial business web site for over 10 years with Microsoft FrontPage. The web site is content-rich for my specific industry. It’s much more complicated than a blog. It has many hundreds and hundreds of technical pages. But I must tell you, it’s much easier. It appeals to my logical mind. Upgrading is a breeze: Push a button.

This Wordpress self-hosting Installation & Upgrading is much too “technical-geeky”, which does not appeal to me. There should be some auto upgrade button. Somebody write that code. Please!

I may have to go back to Google Blogger or Wordpress.com and accept the loss of some control (and a tiny choice of themes & widgets) for the gain of less aggravation.

::Sigh::

I really Heart Microsoft.
