I REALLY can't understand the "static blog movement", it makes no sense to me. As others have said, why sacrifice flexibility and availability.... The only rea

  The one thing you are definitely not sacrificing is availability. Making static content is far simpler and easier to make highly available via a Push Zone on a CDN. Cheaper too.

    How does that work from my phone?

      Do you not know how to download apps? I'm asking this question as seriously as you asked yours. There are apps for markdown, ssh, sftp, ftp, and all sorts of related tools that would let you do this from your phone.

        I do know how to download apps and I am genuinely curious. The beauty of for instance the wordpress app, is how integrated it is with the phone. Can insert pictures and videos from the camera easily. How would this work from the ssh and ftp apps? Without having tried it out I can't really see how this is anything but cumbersome.

          I don't know of any purpose built app for a static website. However, if you are comparing it to the Wordpress app? Ya, that is easier. However, you aren't comparing apples to apples at that point. If I built a purpose built app for my static blog, yes it would be just as easy.

            Guess I'll stick to wordpress, sounds easier than making an app :)

  In my case, because I don't trust any blog engine to remain secure if I can't find the time to update it regularly, and I'd rather pay the $29/month that WPEngine would cost me on other stuff.
