Don't get me wrong, I like Blogger. There were many things that it handles that I don't have to think about and I guess that is part of the problem. I want to have more control. I want to be able to change the look of my blog without having to worry about losing everything that I have customized. I really want to add some of the WordPress widgets/plugins that are available. Before you ask... here is the list of types: related posts, tracking, theme options, and third party services integration. Some of the other things I like about WP: better post management; actual back up choices; comment pages have the look of your choice; ability to have multiple pages (can act more like a site than a blog); more options for picture hosting; no more risk of being shut-down as spam; and I want to have more control of my blog. These are just the ones off the top of my head - I think you may have inspired me to write a whole post about this. Thanks That is the same question I asked myself before I started all this.

It only took me a couple of hours to get it up and running in it's default form. Most of that time was taken in extracting the WP files and then FTPing them over to the host server. I really like how much more control I have over my blog - blogger was just so limited in what you could do with it. I am now working on getting the templates setup the way I want them to be. There is some quirkiness with creating them, but I think it will work out overall. Thanks for your support in this. I really appreciate it. I really liked setting up WP.

I thought you were going to leave the old stuff alone, rather than import into the new WP blog. No matter. Things will work out. WP is utterly different from Blogger, but I've found it runs pretty seamlessly once it's in place. Oops. My mistake.
