Choosing my .NET blog engine

Long time that I want start my own blog, but I never had the time for that. Few days ago, I decided - that's it - Today is the day.

I was playing around, download source of some Open Source ASP.NET blogs as dasBlogsubText,  and BlogEngine.NET and look at their code. All of them are written in high level code, All of them - for sure are doing their job perfect.

But the one that cached my eyes first was BlogEngine.NET. The code is very simple, very clean - exectly as Mads Kristensen wrote in his blog: "KISS – Keep It Simple, Stupid. I quickly played with the code, add some of my own tweaks, create my own theme, upload the blog to my hosting account at GoDaddy (must not forget to remove the trust level from the Web.Config)  and as you can see - the blog is up and running!

To BlogEngine.NET team - Keep going with your great work!

I too found BlogEngine.NET to be a great blog engine. It's easy to implement and it's also easy to tweak.

And thanks Miron for posting the blog entry on resizing images during the upload process. I plan to add it into my version of Blogengine.NET.

I have to agree that it's top notch.

I like what you have done with your blog a lot, the design is right on.

I love the fact that the guys over at BlogeEngine respond to technical support inquiries within a matter of hours, sometimes minutes, on their forum. It does seem to be one of the better ASP blog tools out there, however seems to be made for a more highly technical person. There definitely aren't as many plug 'n play themes/plugins..etc.

I tried it out at first for my brand new blog at http://sitanddate.com/blog on the II/windows server, but it was too much of a struggle. I ended up having to learn the basics of php/mysql to go with Wordpress. Hopefully someday BE will be just as big and popular as WP.
