i’ve been working on setting up this page, as well as a non word press site, for over 7 hours today. i didn’t realize the time until i noticed it was dark out and i still had laundry to do and errands to run. there are SO MANY little intricacies that you have to worry about, and most are behind the scenes. Examples are:

• cache, or making sure ur page refreshes quickly
• blocking spam in comment posts
• analytics of visitors information
• themes
• ratings
• polls, which i still dont have any idea what to do
• feedburner/rss – but its not working
• site organization
• twitter feeds – which doesn’t appear to be working…

and most of these things are only related to wordpress. it doesn’t include the css work and color scheming for my own site, which looks like hell relative to the wordpress themes.

i just realized how much web developers do. there’s so much to worry about on top of the simple web layout. and everything i mentioned doesn’t even consider server side scripting. i appreciate the web developers that much more now!

now off to take care of my hygiene since i forgot to brush my teeth today
