Prologue is an interesting little theme, and definitely a fun thing to mess with. Automattic (the same gods that created WordPress) probably got fed up with Twitter crashing all the time, so they went ahead and made it possible for any WordPress blog to behave like twitter with a single theme.  The usefulness of such a theme is debatable, but I’m sure there are several creative people out there that will do amazing things with it. I, for one, am looking at possibly using it for a personal Tumlelog. I’ve also been looking for a new theme for i like tech, so I’ve been tinkering with it a lot, but it’s just not meant for a full blog. If you want the theme, it is available on WordPress.com blogs in the Presentation section, or here, for standalone WordPress blogs.

I do, however, have the pleasure of releasing what may be the first custom style for it, which I shall name Phagocytosis, just because I can. It’s a subtle, blue theme that can be achieved by simply replacing the default style.css in the “prologue” theme folder with this.   See the two screenshots below (left is logged out, right is logged in).
