Blog move

For some months technical problems have prevented me from posting on my blog; and a lack of time prevented me from fixing them. I have been thinking of using a SaaS (Software as a Service) approach for hosting this blog for quite a while, and these problems pushed me over the edge. After looking at the possibilities available, Google seemed an excellent choice.

I must say I have been very pleasantly surprised by how well Google's Blogger just works.  One example is "After the jump summaries". This is a feature which allows you to create expandable post summaries in your blog posts, so longer posts appear as an intro with a link to "Read More".

There are a few formatting issues that I need to resolve, but that will come later.Once all the articles are moved, I will point the blog's URL over here. The articles will keep their original dates, and if possible I will try to keep the original URLs. Unfortunately the comments probably won't make it across. Once the blog is in its new home it should be significantly easier to maintain, which means I should add articles more regularly again.
