So I’ve managed to make a significant amount of progress on this goal. I’ve set up a website (http://www.backdrifter.com) where my blog will be published. I’ve decided to use WordPress as a content management system, and have currently installed a development version of the upcoming 1.5 release.

Right now, the website is a mess of test posts. It will probably remain that way for a while as I get the site designed and formatted to my liking. Eventually, I hope to complete that work and begin writing regular posts.
