Remarkably, after years of owning this domain, it’s taken this long to actually set up my gallery of my round-the-world trip photos. I haven’t captioned most of the pictures yet, but they’re there to see at http://www.tcbutler.co.uk/gallery.

Expect to see a load more photos appearing there soon!

I’ve been building justwanna.com with mambo for a while now. I’ve done a bit more reading (mainly on www.opensourcecms.com) and a lot more playing on my offline version of the site, and think that drupal might be a better alternative. Why?

• It’s written a lot more simply (ie – I can understand most of the code)
• It has an ingenious category system (you define a series of category structures, each of which can be hierarchical, and which can overlap as you attach any number of categories to an article, post, comment etc, which are just nodes in a multi-dimensional category structure – just how I wanted to do it when I was drafting a CMS a few months ago!)
• Has the same kind of community support as Mambo (though modules aren’t quite as innovative)
• Seems much better-suited to community-led sites

So maybe I’ll transfer it later this week.
