Plain HTML isn't very workable for a blog. You'd have to maintain: - RSS/Atom - the post list - next / previous links by hand (and remember to fix the link tests if you change some post title) And if you want to change the page structure layout a bit, you'll have to update all the posts by hand as well. You could do without all this but that means it's difficult for readers to follow what's your writing.
