 <title>WordPress: Thanks!</title>
 <link>https://mg.to/2004/08/01/wordpress-thanks</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;I needed a blog, and I needed it fast. I wanted something written in &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.ruby-lang.org/&quot;&gt;Ruby&lt;/a&gt; or maybe &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.python.org/&quot;&gt;Python&lt;/a&gt;, but I&amp;#8217;d heard enough good things about &lt;a href=&quot;https://wordpress.org/&quot;&gt;WordPress&lt;/a&gt; that I gave it a try.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Wow! This is nice work! I&amp;#8217;ll live with it being written in &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.php.net/&quot;&gt;PHP&lt;/a&gt;. ;-) It was easy to get running on my virtual Linux server, once I figured out how to add a &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.mysql.com/&quot;&gt;MySQL&lt;/a&gt; user for WordPress. The default stylesheet stinks big-time, but the &lt;a href=&quot;https://wiki.wordpress.org/&quot;&gt;WordPress Wiki&lt;/a&gt; pointed me to the &lt;a href=&quot;https://wiki.wordpress.org/StyleCompetition&quot;&gt;Style Competition&lt;/a&gt;, where I found the &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.alexking.org/software/wordpress/styles/sample.php?wpstyle=rubric&quot;&gt;Rubric&lt;/a&gt; style was closest to my taste. I tweaked it a bit and here we are.&lt;/p&gt;
