Microblogging Engine
This site is running on a microblogging engine I wrote. If you have a LAMP stack of your own, you can combine these two projects to experiment with it:
- php-webapp-framework — The base project that interprets & handles requests
- PlainSQLiteBlog — The plugin required to use the webapp framework as a microblogging engine
Project Mission

Offer a balance of simplicity and customization
