I'm loving the comments thread for this post. Can't decide whether to get my upholstery cleaned or do something about my fast food obesity.

For the past 5 years my blog has consisted of a gently accumulating Python script. It is currently around 300 lines, up from 200 or so when I initially created it. Around 2006 I decided to write a script to import the (filesystem-based) articles into a WordPress install. Instant dissatisfaction. WordPress is huge, insecure, and a little overfeatured for the average Joe.

So I'm still here with my horrible little Python script, and quite happy to be using it over WordPress. I'm presently adding an archives facility, integration with Disqus, and my first attempt at a pretty theme.

Take a look, it does HTML and RSS 2.0 output, and supports either HTML or a horrible wiki-like formatting for posts:
