I have finally decided to install a CMS though I haven't settled on which one I'm going to use. I've started with Drupal because my hosting service has a simplified setup process for it. Ironically that turned out to be too limited for my tastes so I've installed it myself along with the Zen theme. I chose Zen because it permits fine control over the look & feel without the burden of doing it all from scratch. Ultimately I would like something that connects with the myriad online services (e.g. Blogger, social networking sites).
