Goodbye Blogger, Hello WordPress

November 20th, 2007

I’m sorry, Blogger. I have to break up with you. I know we haven’t been together very long, but it’s over. I just wanted an easy solution, but you had to go and make things complicated. You had to punish me because I wanted to publish the blog on my own domain. Why do you hate the FTP users that don’t want a blogspot.com domain?? Why can’t we publish a list of our tags (or “labels” as you insist on calling them)? Why can’t we have “Next” and “Previous” links? It just doesn’t make sense. And the documentation for your templates is practically impossible to find. Oh, I could go on, but what’s the use.

There is something I should tell you, there’s someone else. Yes, you’ve been replaced. WordPress is much more powerful and configurable than you ever were, and surprisingly, even easier to use. So now it is time for me to say goodbye to you, Blogger. Goodbye.
