Yes, I know, I have launched no less than three different blog sites over the last three years, agerling.wordpress.com, alan.gerlingfamily.com and amos5worship.com with a relaunch on that site. So, here we are with another place to call blog home. Luckily, most of my posts have moved with me as I have gone from site to site, with the exception being the posts I wrote while using habari on amos5worship. I'll probably manually copy those over later.Couple of reasons for the move back to Wordpress. First of all, renewal was up for amos5worship, and I just couldn't justify paying for the domain when I don't use it all that often. Jodie came to the same conclusion and moved her blog to psalm127mom.blogspot.com (I know, Blogspot :-( Ick!) The second reason was the time needed to tinker within my custom design on my custom install of habari really resulted in me doing nothing. With this blog, I've got it set up, and Wordpress worries about things like upgrades and design theming, etc. That means that all I have to worry about is the content! Oh, and did I mention free. That's a pretty solid reason.
The last reason that I transitioned away from amos5worship is that I felt a pressure on myself to keep post to subject matter of worship and justice and related matters. Not to say I didn't stray, but I felt weird writing a long post on Ubuntu on a worship site. Worship Geek (a light-bulb moment that happened to be available) lets me flex the content since the title is really a description of two passions of mine, worship and all things geeky. So, my hope is to post more often. (I know, I've said that before) I'm also planning to broaden the content a bit.
So, sorry for the change again. I really do intend that this is going to be my permanent blog for the foreseeable future. Thanks for being patient, and looking forward to sharing with you going forward.
