Thinking of Moving

December 28th, 2006 . by Cary

I’m considering moving over to a different platform – because of this.

I am currently wrestling with WordPress.com, which is free, which is a problem – I can’t make the changes to the template that I can here. Specifically, I would lose the eagle in the background, and the blogrolls would disappear.

WordPress.com has a blogrolling feature, but you have to manually enter each blgo you want to roll – and in the case of other people’s blogrolls (such as Texas Fred’s, and Ika’s Roll) you can’t, as far as I have been able to tell, get them to appear in your sidebar. Security reasons, they say – force you to pay for hosting and using WordPress.org, I say.

Another big stumbling block is the fact that you cannot import your “new and improved” blogspot blog to WordPress.com. That means I would have to manually move each post over, and I would lose all the comments.

Ah, well – back to searching for the answer.
