You may notice some changes. My blog looks different and, depending on how you found it, you may have noticed that the adress is different.

There are a bunch of reasons I changed. For the past six months I’ve been using Blogger, a free service from Google. I always knew it would be sort of temporary and I find that it is pretty limiting. I also discovered this great new theme called “Imprezz,” designed by Gopal Raju from ProductiveDreams.  So, if you haven’t already, or your old link doesn’t work, make sure you boomark the new address, and check back often. Feel free to comment, too.
