Well, for a long time I have run my own blogging software - ever since Brian Lamb taught me about blogging!. But over the holiday I gave up, and am now hosting my blog with the fine folks at wordpress.com. Running the software, backing it up, migrating to new versions, applying security patches, etc., was fun for a while. But you know what? I just want my blog to work. I have other things to do in life.

Whether or not you’ve noticed, the URL of my blog is no longer http://opencontent.org/ - it is now http://opencontent.org/. The 301 Redirect should be working for all of you, but probably best to just go ahead and update the URL in your feedreader or bookmarks.

BTW, I would love to do the same with my Mediawiki install… Anybody know a good hosting service to which I can migrate my current Mediawiki?
