I don’t want to do my homework.

Alright.

I’m going to give it a try.

At one of my other domains, I’m giving a run-through of Chyrp, which is extremely similar to Tumblr, but you retain your own rights (copyrights/copylefts/Creative Commons Licenses). The thing is, Chyrp is nowhere near as easy as WordPress, let alone Blogger or Movable Type. Its code is hard. Chyrp has “Twigs” and “Feathers” and shit. I just came to learn WP. So screw it.

For now, this is what I’ve got. This is what I’ve come to learn. This is what is easiest. Maybe not for genre-specific posts (such as “Image” or “Photo” or “Quote”), but it is a hell of a lot easier than flippin “Feathers”.

Happy 2010, y’all.
