I replaced the SnipSnap software that I had been previously using to run this site with a new system that I wrote myself. The software is tentatively called &lt;i class="ital"&gt;FinBlog&lt;/i&gt;, and is written entirely in &lt;a href="/space/pike"&gt;pike&lt;/a&gt; using a MVC (Model-View-Controller) framework I've been writing, appropriately enough called Fins.&lt;p class="paragraph"/&gt;
It (FinBlog and Fins, as well) is still a work in progress, but it's got enough functionality now to replace &lt;a href="SnipSnap" class="wiki_link_external" &gt;http://snipsnap.org&lt;/a&gt;, which was causing problems due to its slowness and tendency to allocate huge amounts of memory within minutes of startup. FinBlog only uses 9MB of RAM, which is a great improvement.&lt;p class="paragraph"/&gt;
Go ahead, kick the tires. Let me know what you think.</description><generator>Fins 0.9.7</generator><docs>http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/rss</docs><category>pike</category></channel>
