I'm thinking it might be nice to have an easy to use web-based cms system that I could post this sort of stuff too and assign it to a category and then let google index it. [snip]
I've used a variety of wikis; you just have to choose one and run with it. I'm not familiar with many blog packages, but do use Serendipity (http://www.s9y.org), and have played a little with Jaws (http://www.jaws-project.com/index.php); they have some nice features and are relatively easy to set up.
Thanks, I'll take a look at those...
Basically, I want a way to post things I think others might find useful. I'm not interested in user comments. I don't care about RSS. I would like to easily be able to mark things as "code" or "type this at a shell prompt" as well as link to entire source files, etc.
If you'r interested in posting "things I think others might find useful", why are you not interested in RSS? How will *others* know when you've posted something new? I find that RSS is a great tool for me to keep track of developers, projects, and other sundries. I rarely use my bookmarks anymore.
Hmm... well, I guess what I meant to say is I'm not interested in all that trackback/ping stuff. I have no delusions that my site will get about 1 visitor a day... me. I just want a place to put things that I can point people to if it's relevant... so in that regards, RSS isn't a feature I need... I'd rather have a really clean way to post blocks of code...
If all else fails... you're a PHP developer -- code your own!
Heh. I was afraid you were going to say that :-) if it comes to that I'll hack up one of the existing ones to do what I want... there's already too many of them out there :) -philip
