Welcome to my new blogging home

If you’re here, you’ve quite likely already a regular reader and have followed me over from Wolfblogs. I have to say, I love the new look here (but WordPress has a lot of cool templates and flexibility, so I’m open to ideas– let me know what you think). You’ll also notice that the formatting is off on most of the old posts I was able to import (with much frustration and much help from the Wolfblogs support staff), but mostly just in the form of ugly looking block quotes. I can live with that, as my biggest fear was that all my ramblings for the past 4 years would basically disappear into the aether. Anyway, I’m here now, enjoy (and comment!)…
About Steve Greene
Why WordPress over Blogger? I’m struggling with the choice … and the pain in the rear that moving everything from the last 3+ years is looking to be. Though I must say that “Goodbye WolfBlogs!” hasn’t been too hard to say.
I played around with some templates/themes on both, and generally just seemed to like the look and functionality of wordpress a little better. Also, my blogging friend, Steve S has been at blogger a while and he said if he had to do it again, he would’ve actually gone with wordpress. One could do a lot worse than following Steve S’s advice (except when it comes to getting along with faculty colleagues), so that was persuasive. And lastly, Eric Pauley at wolfblogs support, was able to help me figure out a way to get the old stuff imported into WordPress.
