Well, I’ve decided to give it another go; this time, with a little more knowledge under my belt. I haven’t been playing very much WoW, so the first thing to do was to start again. I gave myself a few hours this weekend and actually attempted get some questing done. It was an exhilarating experience. The next thing to do was to design a system for uploading images, text, quotes, conversations, and a few other things, with a nice design, RSS, and easy management. Knowing I couldn’t do that, and based on my fascination with mini-blogging, I decided to scratch and itch and give Tumblr a go.

It was worth it. Tumblr allows for stupid-simple management of mini-blogging, and it even makes it look good. It has image, audio, and video upload support, and has a beautiful API. I was even able to connect it up to a custom URL with a simple A-record in my DNS.

And, voila!, Peter’s WoW Journal is re-born: http://wow.peterwooley.com
