It is not an easy decision but I finally switch over to WordPress. For the last 3 years, I run my blog on a customized Drupal called Drupal 4 Bloggers. It has sentimental values for me since, well, I coded it. But Drupal 4 Blogger is more like a personal project. It was great 3 […]

Group Blog by MPs
Okay, a group blog is nothing new. A group blog by a group of (post 65) members of paliaments is worth mentioning. Welcome to Blogging, p65.sg. I know, it is not “launch” but someone already submitted it to Tomorrow.sg and I am willing to bet this is going to be on newspaper tomorrow. Now lets […]
What is a Media?
