OK, OK… Those non-technical folks out there may have the first instinct to skip over this post… but this one’s more of a story…
Last year, almost a whole year ago, I was looking for some blogging software that I could run on my site that was written in ASP.NET (preferably the experimental ASP.NET 2). Much to my dismay, the closest thing I could find was .Text, and it really wasn’t what I wanted. So I decided I’d create one.
I started a project on SourceForge and put together the start of a plan. I uploaded the plan to the website and then things got busy… The project was ignored for almost an entire year when I went through the same search: find an ASP.NET 2.0 Blog solution. I still can’t and .Text still is the closest option I could find. Imagine my surprise however, when I went back to SourceForge to do a search, and when I searched for “blog c#” the application at the top of the search results was: My Project!
It’s slipped from the top spot this week, but this was inspiration enough for me to resume the project. Aparently there is enough demand for a solution like this that it needs to get done… Keep your eyes peeled for ChromiumBlog!
