Olesen http://blog.smartere.dk/?p=41 Som de fleste ved har nogle danske internet-udbydere spærret for adgangen til The Pirate Bay, bl.a. TDC. Dermed er det også blevet gjort umuligt at følge med i den nærtstående retssag mod nogle af folkene bag The Pirate Bay, hvor nyheder set fra deres synspunkt bliver publiceret på trial.thepiratebay.org.

Dette synes jeg er helt uholdbart i et rets-samfund som det danske!
Tænk hvis det bliver kutyme at anklagede ikke kan forsvare sig i medierne!

Derfor har jeg sat et mirror af bloggen, på http://tpbtrial.smartere.dk/ så folk der har en mindre friheds-elskende internet-udbyder også kan følge med i begge sider af retssagen. Den opdaterer én gang i timen.

Bemærk! Der findes ingen links til ophavsrettigt beskyttet materiale på den side jeg laver et mirror af! Det er nok det bedste eksempel på censur vi har i Danmark pt.: En side der ikke overtræder nogen som helst love, men som blot udtrykker en mening, er blevet spærret!

Olesen http://blog.smartere.dk/?p=3 So, I just installed WordPress, because I was starting to have a too long mental list of things that I considered "blog-able". My current estimate of what I will be blogging about is: Sysadmin'ing on a tight budget, Ubuntu Linux, MultiADM, various happenings in the Open Source world, and probably a bit about my everyday life as a student of Computer Science at Aalborg University, Denmark.

But back to the title of this post. For various reasons I have previously preferred other blogging software (primarily blogging software integrated with Typo3), but I finally gave in and installed WordPress. I deemed that I was simply missing out on too much: trackbacks, tags, anti-spam measures for comments. All this warranted a separate blogging system, and WordPress is pretty much the no. 1 blogging system in use.

My experience with it so far: Installation was okay, but it could have told me that the reason I didn't get the fancy install-wizard was because I had forgot to give permissions for WordPress to modify its files. Minor nitpick: I decided to move my installation from /wordpress to just /. This resulted in all links still pointing at /wordpress. After a little detective work, and phpMyAdmin to the rescue to alter a couple of rows, and everything was working again.

But overall it seems WordPress is a pretty capable and extendable, and has a nice Web 2.0-like user interface. I'm pretty sure I will grow accustomed to it over time.
