We're Moving!!!

Well, it is official... I am moving my blog Virtual High School Meanderings from Blogger to Word Press. I have secured the domain:


I made the decision to change hosting sites for a couple of reasons.
  1. The domain http://virtualschooling.wordpress.com/ is better than http://mkbnl.blogspot.com
  2. Word Press is a better blogging system than Blogger in my opinion, as it has:
    • Internal statistics
    • Ability to add pages in addition to entry
    • The calendar feature on the site
    • Both labels (which Blogger has) and internal tags to Technorati (which I had to do manually in Blogger)
So after almost three years, I'm moving.

It is one month shy of three years ago I began this blog with the entry Welcome to my Blog on Virtual High Schools. I selected Blogger at the time because I was new to blogging and with the help of Nathan Lowell I got started. I added Haloscan so that I could keep trackbacks (and used the Wizbang Standalone Trackback Pinger to send them). To increase traffic I registered with BlogShares, BlogInSpace, BlogExplosion, BlogsCanada, FeedBurner, and Technorati.

But now I'm moving and I hope that my readers will follow. So, if you are physically coming to this blog, please re-direct your browser to http://virtualschooling.wordpress.com/. If you're reading this in an RSS reader, please update your feed to http://virtualschooling.wordpress.com/.

Hope to see you at my new location:

Thank you for detailing your reasons for moving. I run a course on blogging and I have tended to downplay the differences between blogger and wordpress.

The integrated stats are a particularly nice feature.

Audrey, your blog isn't thematically consistent with the kinds of ones I include in my blogroll. In addition, I have moved this blog to http://virtualschooling.wordpress.com - as indicated in the message to which you commented.
