Over the years this website has changed and evolved. It started off using the
TYPO3 CMS but since this was just a blog, this engine was far too powerful. So the next stage involved a change over to
Mambo Server's amazing system (also now in
Joomla flavour) which also proved to be more than necessary for what I wanted. The next move was to
Movable Type but I quickly swapped to
WordPress, the current version, when MT had a major flaw that prevented any form of posting for almost two weeks.
WordPress has provided a very satisfying and reliable experience in all of the time that I have been using it and it keeps getting better. The availability of so many plugins, themes, and help pages has been a strong factor also.
As a result of all of these changes, most of the earlier sites are now no longer available. Most, if not all of the content has now been integrated into this site, so it is not lost even though the original links no longer work.
If you have come to this page without choosing it then it is because you were looking for something on one of these older sites. You will probably find it through a quick search of some key words relating to the content.
Alternatively you may like to visit these two places where some of the original content has been preserved:
http://samafas.com/origsite/
The original site and layout that started the new samafas.com domain and now contains links and information about the original content that has existed over the years.
http://groovyguppy.com
The original domain where it all started, with a portion of the original TYPO3 powered website now in static format. To get the best out of this site you will need to browse it with Internet Explorer because the menu does not work in Firefox (suggestions on how to fix this are welcomed). Please note that all of this content can also be found on this blog.
