		<description><![CDATA[The first post is live. I am moving from my old blog on WordPress to using BlogHandy to run my personal website.]]></description><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Alright. This is my first post on the new <a href="#tuned">website</a>.</p>
<p>I used to write daily for some time under my old personal website.</p>
<p>It was one of those challenges: <strong>write daily.</strong></p>
<p>New Year 2020.</p>
<p>I started OK. Especially taking into account that I'm not a natural-born writer.</p>
<p>Some of my concepts and thoughts even made it onto other people's websites and podcasts.</p>
<p>However, the pressure of doing it daily also meant that I didn't care about formatting, providing sources or research to back up my thoughts.</p>
<p>I probably wrote not more than a few hundred words per post. I think the average was around 350-500 words.</p>
<p>Back then, it was on WordPress. Another big minus. I've always hated WordPress and only used it as a necessary evil.</p>
<p>Now, this blog is different. It runs on my own platform: <a href="http://www.bloghandy.com/?ref=uwedreiss" target="_blank" rel="noopener">BlogHandy</a>.</p>
<p>It's the simplest and most straightforward way of adding a blog to any website in my opinion.</p>
<p>I love the simple interface. Just like things were back in the day. Not too cluttered and full of unnecessary functions. No need to install plugins or hire a designer to adapt a theme.</p>
<p>Simply sign up, copy-paste two lines of JavaScript into my custom-coded personal website and that's it. Let's get cracking with the blog posts...</p>
<p>Stay <a id="tuned"></a>tuned!</p>]]></content:encoded>
