Al Hawkins: There needs to be a default template that it loads quickly and doesn't choke Netscape; you can always select a more "design-intensive" template after you get going, and a very basic template is a great place to begin building your own website. You don't need a lot of table tags and spacer gifs getting in the way of the learning experience. Like Jeff says, themes fuck with your site.

Damn, my headstart is about to evaporate. I've got a pack of Blog Hounds on my tail. My rank is about to fall...

Dave Winer: The Frontier Scripting Tutorial came out on this day in 1998. It was written by Matt Neuburg and adapted by Brent Simmons. I just reviewed it. It's a little out of date, but it's a very good tutorial for Web scripting. Both Matt and Brent are excellent writers who really care about the subject. There should be a few nuggets there for Radio newcomers.

Judging by their bizarro urls, the Do It Yourself Network uses Vignette. I seriously doubt that they configured their own cms. More likely they shelled out serious dinero for a small army of consultants. And I shudder to think what their license agreement looks like. Do you think support and upgrades are included? Somebody needs to tell them about Radio.
