Just finished my morning mocha (who needs breakfast?) and now I have a bottle of nicely chilled water sitting on my desk and tempting me to partake of its cool delicious freshness. Yum.

I think I just expected a little more info than is readily available. Of course, I didn't expect Chyrp to be quite so simple to use once I got into it. I think that's part of what initially threw me off - I thought it was so bafflingly easy that I was missing something and I'd done/was doing something wrong... weird feeling :) I understand your stance on documentation, though, and that's fair enough.
My only real niggle with Chyrp came about because I'm one of those idiots who spent ten minutes wondering why my tumblr feather wasn't working because I had just uploaded the entire folder (thinking it was an all-in-one feather) instead of pulling out the individual feathers. Doh! Course, a quick glance at the community forum sorted me out though, and now I know better!
Yep, the community forum was helpful when I needed it though, so that's filling the gap for the time being.
Been playing with Chyrp for a few days now. It seems quite nice but there's a distinct lack of documentation/help for new users. Most of the time it's been pretty easy to use, but I've had to make a couple of forum searches on the chyrp site for a few issues and found that the niggles I've had have been fairly common. As a young project it's awesome, but part of me still wants to use Wordpress (because I'm so much more familiar with it) and a tumblelogging theme instead.
Hmm... this is a really interesting question!
I think I'm going to be one of those people with a tiny number of rooms... I just have no desire to live in a huge house. I did it once (as a teen, with my family) and it was awful. I much prefer something more compact. I also really hate lots of/big windows, and large homes tend to have many/large windows, go figure!
Master bedroom + en suite bathroom (neither needs to be huge)
Guest bedroom (always useful)
Box room (for dog crates etc. because they take up a lot of space)
Upstairs bathroom (a must-have)
Downstairs WC (a convenient convenience!)
Kitchen-Diner (I'm not into formal dining and don't need a huge kitchen)
Lounge (preferably more cosy than sprawling)
Small office/study room (so I can get my computer + books out of my bedroom!)
My dog's name is Rocket :) He's a basenji-mix with a tendency to jump straight up in the air from standing... so the name came from that.
Runners-up were Bailey, Spud, and Bandit. None quite suited as much as Rocket.
Adding myself to the list.
This is Rocket (or Rocky, as I call him), a basenji-flavoured mutt born at the local shelter. I got him at the end of last September at about 9 weeks old, he's 6 months old now and far more trouble than I expected him to be!
He is cute though, and has his own Flickr set :)
I've been using dokuwiki with a tagging plugin for my snippets/notes, and I'm finding that it works a treat.

Here's mine. I've had this wallpaper across two different computers since late 2005, I love it so much.
edit: whoa, didn't realise this topic was so old and recently resurrected!
