Many things have changed from a technological perspective, making the maintenance of a site like this less of a burden for me. For those interested, I’m using the following:

WordPress – Which is a content management system that generates my site in its entirety. I’ve added a few plugins like High Performance SEO and XML-Sitemap.
Filtered by Theme Trust – This template is taking care of the presentation and organization of my projects and posts.
