Today I migrated the blog from its old home to WordPress.com. Basically, my modest traffic and non-existent ambitions did not merit the cost and hassle of a self-hosted blog. Shared hosting was cheap but unreliable and the VPS I was on for the last year, in addition to being expensive, required greater technical knowledge than I have to keep it running optimally.

So here I am on WordPress.com—which is actually where I started out for a few days last year before making the blog live to the world. Hopefully, this will be a more stable/reliable home. The new look will take a bit of getting used to for me, but I do like some of the features included in WordPress.com, especially for images. Speaking of which….

I’m still working out some kinks from the move, but I’d appreciate it if you could leave a comment here or on any post where you come across wonky formatting or anything broken.

Thanks!
