A new foundation

Created by hww3. Last updated by hww3, 7 years ago. Version #4.

If you're a semi-regular visitor, you'll probably not notice the major change that occurred here last night. I replaced the SnipSnap software that I had been previously using to run this site with a new system that I wrote myself. The software is tentatively called FinBlog, and is written entirely in pike using a MVC (Model-View-Controller) framework I've been writing, appropriately enough called Fins.

It (FinBlog and Fins, as well) is still a work in progress, but it's got enough functionality now to replace SnipSnap, which was causing problems due to its slowness and tendency to allocate huge amounts of memory within minutes of startup. FinBlog only uses 9MB of RAM, which is a great improvement.

Go ahead, kick the tires. Let me know what you think.
