The migration from WordPress is complete. The articles came over easily enough and I've added some formatting where I felt like getting fancy.  (Why Drop Caps?  Why Not?)  You'll see a lot more links in the articles that mostly go to Wikipedia.  This is courtesy of a nice little plugin called WikiBot.  The blog-standard Tag Cloud is also happening off to the left courtesy of JTags.  I'm still messing with the organization of things - right now, I've categorized things so that there are these main page articles about this site, FraternIT 2.0 articles about my three other fraternity-related sites, reviews, general articles on politics or whatever I feel like, and...that's about it.  Some decent fraternity & sorority links are up.  The look of things, so far, is brought to you by the JSN Epic template from JoomlaShine.

As the title of this post would suggest, I'm migrating my blog.  Joomla is perfectly capable of performing as a blog platform.  Sure, WordPress is preferred almost universally, but WordPress is mostly great for things like comments and pingbacks and other things that I don't really use.  I'm toying with the idea of somehow integrating my wiki more closely into the new Joomla main site.  We'll see.  In the meantime, please excuse the general mess of things.  This is also a new template...so that's happening.  I promise that my next post will involve Islamic extremists.  Seriously.

Alright.  Things are looking...reasonable.  Dull, but reasonable.

I'm aiming to expand Corsulian.com.  Of course, eight months ago, I cut out most of the content and diverted the remaining stuff into a wiki for GMU fraternity & sorority life history and then created a blog.  But I can do more.

The current Corsulian's Blog has pretty much turned into a chronicle of what I'm doing with open source Web 2.0 tools - mainly Joomla & MediaWiki.  That's all well and good (and fairly professional), but I have a tendency to rant about matters both political and mundane.  It seems odd to mix these things.  So here's basically what I'm thinking:

• Corsulian's Blog becomes Corsulian's Blog: FraternIT 2.0 - Developing Technology for Greeks.  Most of the technology-related posts are about the site for Gamma Phi Beta's Epsilon Pi chapter, PSKDC.org, and I may start assisting with the site Phi Sigma Kappa's Xi Septaton chapter.  So focusing on web technology as it relates to fraternities & sororities is not a stretch.
• Corsulian's Wiki remains largely the same because it is so very awesome
• Corsulian.com gains a couple blogging components and, most importantly, a portal of links for fraternity & sorority members.  Most portals out there right now are full of useless things like individual chapter links and sites that sell lettered t-shirts.  Who cares?  Use Google.  This would be a portal for more relevant things like the Capital Fraternity Caucus.

I've recently decided to redo this main page - please be patient as it comes together.  The wiki and blog are still doing their thing.
