I Don't Even Know What Will Happen!

FTP publishing will no longer be available after May 1, 2010
You currently have blogs that are published using FTP. You must migrate your blogs to a new custom domain URL or a blogspot URL. To learn more, see our dedicated blog and help documentation.
Yeah, so I spent some time looking at WordPress and thinking about the relative benefits of WP vs. Blogger and hosting vs. no longer hosting my own blog (and by extension my whole dang site, I mean what do I need a site (that I don't update) for if I don't have a blog (that I don't update) on it, except for occasional file hosting and an excuse to dink around with HTML occasionally?). Also I've got this Amazon S3 account now, and admittedly I still don't know how to use it, but it seems like it might work just as well if not better if I can just get past that little hurdle of ignorance. So there's, like, a layer cake of decisions to make here and I can't seem to approach it from any angle other than complete haphazardry (yeah, that's a word now). As in, "let's try this and see what happens."
So I'm currently all hopped up on chai and comics and I'm going to click that blog migration link now, which may turn out to have been a terrible idea, but that May 1 deadline is breathing down my neck and it's been eating garlic. There is a very good chance that all my blog posts will be regurgitated into your RSS feed, or that you will suddenly be unsubscribed and have to readjust your feed to reconnect. I apologize for any such mishaps in advance.
HERE WE GO
