Blog Spam and Catchups

Since we made the move from Typepad to my own personal wordpress, we have seen a very strong drop in readership (a lot of folks are still reading the typepad archives without realizing we’ve moved . . . we keep it up for now as a placeholder but it will vanish at the end of the year).

We have fewer blog comments now . . . well, no, that’s not true. We definately have a LOT more blog comments as the amount of spam I have to delete from the comments thread is about 1500% of what it was before. So, fewer regular readers but more spambots. It figures.

I do like the new platform and eventually we will have everything set up the way we like it . . . including a new instant download system for a number of our products that we’ve never had before (have all the doohickies just have to find time to fight the learning curve to finish installation and then we’re off).
