I've since long wanted a place I can toss my programming related nuggets at. Every day I feel I solve something that I'll surely hit again in a not so distant future, but by then I most certainly will have forgotten about the previous solution I came up with.

So I need to blog it down, quick and dirty, for my own documentation and memory's sake.

Must be easy to set up and use.
Must handle code syntax and highlighting gracefully for a number of languages, but mainly C# and C++.
Must be PHP-based, because that's what my host supplies.

I know and have used WordPress (not for code, though), but is it really what I want or need?
