My previous blogs have all been Blogger-based, but my current job has me using WordPress, so I figured I’d start this blog with WordPress. So far, not so good.

1. The image editor is not at all intuitive. How do I insert an image into the body copy and have a runaround/margin so that the image isn’t bleeding into/interfering with the text?

2. There’s no built-in font editor. You can change the color, change text to bold or itals, but there’s no way to change the font, except for editing the code.

3. I’m using Firefox (and the whole world will use Firefox in the future too, I promise) and maybe that’s part of the problem. I will never ever go back to IE. But randomly when writing a post via WordPress in Firefox, I get an editing toolbar and sometimes I don’t. No rhyme, no reason, just annoyance.

4. Sometimes I can copy/paste from Word into the Write Post box and it’ll retain all the formatting properties. AND SOMETIMES IT WON’T! At least be consistently annoying.

5. “Snapshots” seem to be the default — little preview screens appear when you hover over a link on the blog. It’s an innovation that that’s better in theory than practice. It’s like the Rovion of linking.

This is just my not-so-eloquent way of saying that I realize the fonts and images and spacing of the previous posts are all effed up. Trying to figure it all out.
