Finally I got it working! I installed Wordpress 2.7 and did the basic configuration, so this website has now more than a “Check back later” message. The next step will be searching for a wordpress theme, that fits the topic of this blog.
On OpenWebDesign.de i will write about all things around webdesign and webdevelopment. This includes graphical things, programming tips and application reviews. Actually I don’t know how regularly I can post here, but I will try to do it once a week at least.
I hope I will write about things, that others are interested in too. So don’t be shy and leave comments here.
