Thinking about switching to wordpress...

A couple of weeks ago, I created a blog on wordpress, but it was more of a project than a personal blog, however, I realized wordpress offers several advantages over blogger. Despite that, the new version of blogger comes packed with a easy-to-use interface where one can add, remove and move around little modules to configure the look and feel of their blogs. The only feature I dislike about wordpress and that is probably the only thing holding me back from switching is the fact that I'd have to purchase a template in order to modify any of the code (Well, you could modify the code, but you can't save it). I guess when I'm serious about it, I will switch to wordpress and get myself a hosting service.

NC-17 rated blogs?

I came across this interesting article on BBC on whether blogs containing explicit/suggestive images or content be branded with a content rating or a warning? I personally believe they should, and in fact, a large one at that. Those warnings should be targeted for the adult readers who have developed a sense of conscience, not children.

It is the responsibility of the parents to ensure they monitor the internet activities of their children by installing family filters, or whatever is prudent to ensure they are protected from sexual predators, illicit activities and mature content. Take a look at the article and a poll on BBC's website here.
