Blog hunting: my search for new blog estate

Location, location, location.  It has finally come to this on my little blog.  When I first started blogging on Blogger about a year ago, this space was perfect for my needs.  All I cared about at the time was finding a place I could publish content quickly.  I wasn't hung up on customization or features or granite countertops.  A countertop is a countertop is a countertop, right? Blogger was just fine for me - it worked, it met those needs - it was a good starter home.

However, now that I'm part of the blogosphere, I've come to critique blog spaces more closely and have noticed that WordPress and Tumblr offer some features that are highly appealing.  I could get creative with designs on those sites in ways that I can't do on Blogger.   Plus I have found out that I agreed to Terms of Service which allow Blogger to delete my blogs without warning - shocking.   So I've decided to go on the hunt for new blog estate - I may even set up shop on a WordPress or Tumblr site for a while.  Still, my history is here.  If I make a move to a new Blog neighborhood I will put up a sign - er, link - and let you know where I've moved.
