For anybody that might want to know how this works:

The blog package is called Blosxom. I picked this one because it is extremely simple. Being the nerd that I am, I know I am going to want to customize some things, no matter how configurable or extensible the blog package tries to be. Therefore I might as well save myself some time by starting with something simple--Bloxsom is a single Perl CGI that is about 10k long, and half of that is comments. It reads blog entries from individual files out of any arbitrary directory tree you want. This is exactly what I want--no screwing around with mysql or other absurd complications.

Blosxom and the stuff I have attached to it run on Perl.

The web server is Apache 1.3.

The operating system is FreeBSD.
