UNIX Server for NEW WYSE Website
Over the last few months, I have been researching blog software. I have narrowed it down to two options:
www.drupal.org or www.wordpress.org
WordPress support other options besides just blogging. I am looking into this.
Drupal is connected to NetSquared. That's a plus. It is actually a CMS program Content Management System. This means I could actually build an entire website ustilizing this program. I am very tempted to do so. I will need one or two volunteers to assist me though.
The problem is that the WYSE website is currently hosted on a Windows NT server at www.prohosting.com. Both Drupal and WordPress are built on PHP. Our website is currently built on ASP. Don't ask me to explain. Bottom line: we have to switch to PHP in order to have a blog at www.wyse.org. OK, maybe we don't HAVE TO, but my vision for the site can only be actualized if we are on a Unix server.
