WordPress at Home and at Work

I hope that this blog will be useful to the public someday.  But even if it isn’t, I’m glad to gain the experience in using WordPress.  I really impressed my boss the other day when I used WordPress to create a website for our research lab.  The software tools that they have been developing are ready for the public and they wanted me to create a simple website for publishing their work online.  I don’t think that they expected me to finish the site in half a day!  If you’d like to see it, it’s online here.  It was fun to use such a newly learned skill at work.  I decided to also take an online PHP class, just so that I can understand what goes in to making software like WordPress so powerful, yet simple.
