I’m no Al Gore
In the process of changing over to my new blog address I somehow gave up my right to my old blogspot address. I found this out this morning when I logged on and my old blog address came up on the screen but it was something entirely different from my own blog. While transferring over all the old posts to the new blog, I had to tell blogger I was publishing to a new URL. Apparently, when you do that, Blogger assumes you no longer need your old blogspot address and it becomes fair game.
*Sigh*
It appears there is nothing I can do. I am sad that many people were just beginning to get a feel for what this blog is about and now will find it difficult, if not impossible, to find me here. Oh well, I’ll just keep on writing and hopefully new people will find me out here in the nether regions of the Internet.

Posting “change of address” comments on your blogroll is a great way to start. That’s how I found you. Like your new place, BTW.

I’ll put a notice up on my blog too. You should have auctioned off the old URL for the college fund!

I’ve updated my blogroll. That might help. Although I’m sure that you don’t get that much traffic through me. Every little counts though.
Do you want to satisfy the curiosity of the geeks in the audience about how you switched over to the new setup? What did you do? I’m tempted to make a similar switch, but I’d like to hear about yours first.

I went to your old address this morning to check in and there is a note that gives a link to your new address. I found you easily. Which makes me happy, because I like reading your blog

I was able to get a hold of the guy who took the name. He agreed to put up the note telling people my new address.

Hey Matthew…Been AWOL for the past week or so. Popped over to see how you were doing. Great new look. I’m digging the cool colors.
