Sorry - what is "static blogging?"

• chrismcb 13y ago
  "static blogging" is what people did before wordpress, drupal, et al existed...

  ask the spam accounts. i'm sure they'll be happy to fill you in... [it's serving static - pre-rendered html - web pages. like blogging with github or bitbucket, for example.] [at time of posting half of comments were new accounts with content-less "wow" comments. [or people who don't know how to edit posts. haha.] if that's cynical i'm a pink giraffe.]

    [fair enough] hahaha We're at Startup Weekend in Ogden and a few of the people here are being very generous.

  Basically, instead of hosting a database on your server and using php to generate the pages on every request, like Wordpress does, you just create a text file for every page, and precompile your entire site into raw html files, so that it's really fast because there is no processing on the server.

  It's the Fixie bike of the internet - so if you're not a coding hipster don't worry about it.
