Symphony CMS - another migration

Don't get me wrong, Drupal was - and still is - a fine tool to create many kinds of websites, but the lack of good themes was bothering me. So i had two choices: keep searching for a nice Drupal theme or creating one myself, which meant that i had to get my hands dirty on things like CSS, Drupal api's,…

So, why not take the big splash and learn something completely new. I was always interested in technologies like XML and XSLT, so i was delighted to find a CMS which is build around this standards: Symphony CMS.

So far it has been a great ride, most of the functionality of the old Drupal and Wordpress versions of this site has been migrated and i have finally found a framework which makes it very easy to seamless include services like Twitter, Flickr and Last.fm.
