Perhaps, the End of the Beginning

With the New Year come resolutions and a chance for new beginnings. I'm not the resolution type, because it's the rare resolution I'm able to follow through on. Besides, if you really want to make a change or start something new, why wait until 31 December to decide on doing it?

Is this instance, however, the symmetry seemed appropriate. One of the unexpected benefits I've gotten from being a member of the United Cardinal Bloggers, and the Baseball Bloggers Alliance, is the chance to see how other writers do it - both from a style perspective, and from a blog layout one. It's become more and more apparent to me I have taken the Blogger format as far as I probably can. There are other things I'd like to be able to do on this site, and Blogger either doesn't support it, or doesn't support it easily.

One of the main changes I want to make is to make the website URL something more obvious, like maybe stanmusialsstance.com? Blogger doesn't support domain names like that. I've also wanted to make the site more mobile device friendly, something Blogger doesn't support either.

However, Wordpress does. And over my Christmas vacation, I've stood up Stan Musial's Stance there and transferred my archive.

As a result, this will be the last post at this address. The site will remain up - there's no reason to delete it - so you, gentle reader, can follow the trail if you forget to update your links.

It's been a lot of fun writing here. I hope it will be at least as much fun writing over there. And I hope you come along, too.
