Tweaking is still going on here at the new Sustainable Gardening Blog but domains are being forwarded and readers are finding me here, so welcome! H.jpg)
ere’s what’s going on.
This blog’s been doing some moving lately, leaving its old home on Typepad and moving up to the world of Wordpress. At least that’s how Wordpress is usually described. Ultimate freedom, they tout. Simple to use, some even claim. And as much as I like (so far) posting here, setting this thing up was no job for amateurs. The GardenRanters discovered that two years ago and believe me, things haven’t gotten noticeably better. Without the guidance of a web designer/graphic designer, my neighbor and new best friend AJ Campell, this wouldn’t be here at all. She even managed to move everything - posts, categories, comments, the whole shebang - without the blog skipping a beat.
What’s new for you, loyal readers? (Okay, you slackers, too.) The domain www.Takoma Gardener.com is still good, though if you’re using www.takomagardener.typepad.com you’ll need to remove the "Typepad". The domain I’m passing around nowadays is www.SustainableGardeningBlog.com.
If you happen to have used any permalinks to specific posts, they’ll soon be dead, baby. Sorry about that. I’ll try to make it up to you.

Thanks for the kind words. I had a great time setting up this new site. I think you will love the freedom of having your own platform.
Please take a moment to read my blog as well at http://www.butchersdaughter.com for a place where the truth is told.

Very nice Susan! Almost inspires me to start a blog…almost.

Susan, things look great…except I’m not getting a title for your blog when I ask Sage (my feed reader in Firefox) to look for a feed. It finds a few, but it calls you __ no title at all. The menu bar at the top of this page says “blog archive–welcome to my new home on Wordpress” but nothing comes up in my feedreader. It’s probably a minor thing (I don’t do HTML) but I thought I’d let you know.

Yeah, I´m having the same problem subbing with bloglines, get ¨No title¨.

I can’t even get my feed reader to accept it as a valid URL to put on my Yahoo homepage (which I don’t really want to give up) so I’m a bit frustrated.
