Moving to WordPress
I’ve decided to move my blog over to WordPress and leave behind the limitations of Blogger. I’ve enjoyed Blogger for its simplicity, and will still maintain a few other blogs using the service. But this project needs the freedom of WordPress - I should have started out that way some months ago.
