dertyn

this is the home of the dertyn blogging tool.

dertyn is a fast blogging tool written in php, using mysql as a data store, which is based on the mindof microblogging tool. the goal of dertyn is to provide me (and maybe you) with a small, fast, stripped down blogging tool that just works.

i wrote dertyn to fit my needs and to strip out any functionality from other blogging tools that i did not need. dertyn was written as a wordpress alternative.

dertyn features:

• speed: written for speed and only for blogging.
• rich editor: using the yui library, dertyn offers a comprehensive rich text editing environment for blogging.
• comments: have a discussion with your readers with the comments system.
• feeds: let your readers track your posts and comments via rss and atom feeds. all feeds have been validated at feedvalidator.
• drafts: not ready to make your current blog post public yet? save it as a draft and work on it later.
• bring it: already using wordpress? import your entries, drafts and comments. (tested with wordpress 2.6)
• open: the code is all open. don't like something? feel free to fork the code and change it.

what is a "dertyn"? nothing. just a made up word that sounds kind of like "durden".

thanks!
