I have a confession to make.  If you read my blog at all, you may remember that I posted about switching to Django for my wife and I’s blog.  I have to say that I’ve had a change of heart.  I’m going to stick with my old reliable favorite, PHP.  Essentially this is an exercise of restraint.  I really like coding in PHP, and for a multitude of reasons.  It’s lean, flexible, and can be object-oriented.  I’ve been taking a more object-oriented approach to PHP lately, and I would definitely like to the get the practice in.  Another reason I don’t want to switch to a new platform is because of the flexibility of my job.  New projects come along frequently enough that allow for experimentation with new language and technologies. I definitely want to hone the skills I already have, and if something comes up on the job that requires a new language, I’ll delve in there.  In working at Bridge, I’ve already tested the waters in two new languages, Java and Perl, and I enjoy both of them.  So that’s that.

In related news, I’m finally getting to the point where I’m actually redesigning my other blog, so stay tuned for posts on the entire process of re-creating that site.

Cheers.
