So, the kids have discovered the webcam.
There is some very interesting video being shot over here.
In the New Year, I am hoping to save up for a Flip video camera, and that should definitely add to the video being taken, and it will be much better quality.
I recently upgraded this blog to include the sound piece. That cost approximately $20 a year.
In order to upgrade to allow video, it’s $60 a year.
So, I’ve been considering upgrading, but I’ve also been considering moving the whole blog to my own site where I would pay for the domain, but wouldn’t have to pay to add video, sound, etc. I’m guessing that would be more than the $60 a year, but it would all be under my control and I wouldn’t be stuck with templates. Don’t see that as a complaint…I’ve been very happy with WordPress thus far. Just looking at the options.
I’m curious as to what your thoughts are. Many of you are bloggers yourself. Some of you are not, but you are blog readers. I’d like to make your reading (and my creating) experience as fun and painless as possible. So, take my poll and let me know what you think!
I didn’t like any of the three choices you listed, so here’s what I think – if you think you are going to stick with this blog and this format, I say migrate to your own site. It is much easier to do so early in the process then later when you have that many more posts to transfer (plus you’ll lose any backlinks you may have). If you think it may fall to the wayside eventually, stick with what you got (I think I have four other blogs bookmarked for you).
I highly recommend GoDaddy as a host – they have excellent customer service and can help you through the process. They also help backing up and upgrading to the latest WordPress, which there are many updates. And I can help you as well. I also get several emails from them with discounts, so I can forward them onto you!

I’d definitely go for your website, Amy. It’s really worth it.
