Hi there! I know this is kind of off topic but I was wondering which blog
platform are you using for this site? I’m getting fed up of WordPress because I’ve had problems with hackers and I’m looking at options for another platform. I would be awesome if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.

Metro-styled app in iOS? That’s blasphemy!
Metro-styled apps only belong to WP8.
