Subscribe

I've been working on some changes for the past few weeks. My blog is "currently" being worked on by my fabulous designer. I'm not changing my "design" but I'm going to a different blogging platform. Blogger has been giving me issues since June of this year. I go back and forth with my love/hate for them, every single day. I am nervous and excited for the changes coming up!

But, as a loyal reader of Angry Julie Monday.

You are loyal, right? That's what I thought.

You NEED to subscribe!

I know many people read my blog on the Blogger Dashboard. (cough, cough, Stacey)

But how do you subscribe?


You will not miss out on any of my fabulous posts. Right now, my blog actually has a blogger address. It is just forwarded to my own domain. I can't guarantee that everything will forward, etc. properly.

Does it sound like I'm rambling? Do I make any sense? Well, The Nester, also recently switched platforms and did an entire post about subscribing. You need to check out her post which explains it better. Why should I re-do the same post all over again, when she wrote the perfect post.

But seriously, sometimes it takes me hours to do a blog post. I've had MAJOR formatting issues the past month. I scream and yell at the computer. I shake my fist at my monitor. All of this is just making me, well Angry. I can't wait for you to see all my changes. This also means that my blog may be down this week. I can't tell you exactly when. It may take a few days. Plus, I have to learn how to use it. So be patient with me!

Blog was Down, but now Back Up!

My blog was down for a little over twenty-six hours. I have pretty much been freaking out for at least twenty of those twenty-six hours.

I could log into my Blogger Dashboard and type posts, edit posts, and see my reader. But I could not change my layout or see my actual blog. Every time someone would view the blog, they would get an error code from Blogger. I thought it was my domain host, it was not.

The only way to get it fixed was to post on the Blogger Help Boards. I think I posted at least ten times. There were several other people having the same issue. There is no other way to get things fixed with Blogger. No person to e-mail. No phone number to call.

Having this happen has put some thoughts in my head. I've been thinking about changing to Wordpress for awhile now. This incident might facilitate me to make the change. I had this discussion with another person using Blogger last week. If we make the change to WP, would our followers come on over. It is very easy to follow "Blogger Blogs" right now. All you have to do is click "Follow Blog" at the top of the page.

I just don't know if I want to make the switch, quite yet.

But seriously happy right now, cause the blog is back up!! I can be a functioning human again. Not someone is staring at the computer, and keeps hitting "refresh".
