I'm currently considering the WordPress plunge...I've exported most of the contents of this blog to a new blog there (the easy bit), and I'm still feeling it out and seeing how I like it.
If I do like the fit of it, I'll complete the move. This process has been initiated for two reasons: a) that newspaper article and b) It is *so* much easier to comment on WordPress, especially from a mobile device. Question: Just how difficult do people find Disqus? Have you ever felt like commenting but have given up because of how painful the process is? I've had a few people mention this to me in passing, and I want to get an idea of whether this is a real issue
If I do move, people could get the new address from Mel's website, or you could email me for it. I should reiterate, I'm just trying this out. There is a lot to do while trying to move a behemoth of a blog from one site to another, and I may just throw my hands up and stay here if I feel the easier commenting is not worth the hassle.
Update: I decided to first try the path of lesser resistance: Disqus has been deleted. The only reason I will miss it is because it allows you to directly respond to a particular comment, which the commenting options on Blogger do not seem to allow. Does its removal make commenting easier? Would people prefer WordPress to Blogger commenting? If you can, please let me know, because it will help me decide whether to stay here or move.
