Weapon of Choice.

So, I've started on a path down the road that people know as blogging. Though not a great fan of it at first I realised that for me with a busy professional life to publish my views & ideas, blogging would be the ideal solution. And eventually I ended up on the dilemmatic crossroads; use the platform that I use to earn my bread or go with my undying first love. Folks who know me know I'm talking about the great platform divide of LAMP & Microsoft .net. (Since I consider ASP a dead platform now.) Though it seemed like a morally difficult decision, turns out that it wasn't after all. My host is running IIS 6 / Windows Server 2003, and supports only SQL Server. And almost every PHP based blogging engines out there are built with Apache & MySQL in mind. And a flat file based solution doesn't seem to be an elegant solution when I had the choice of running .text, CS or .netNUKE.

I have been following the development of Community Server for more 1 and half years now. And absolutely adore the work of Kevin Harder . CS has now become my weapon of choice. I have liked it very much so far, and believe it would do wonders once it adapts to the .net 2. For my first post I chose this title particularly because I like Fat Boy Slim very much, and the song and the video as well with Christopher Walken!  And I had to put it out that Community Server is my "Weapon of Choice".
