My blog has moved. Please visit: www.scrapbookingwithwords.com

I've finally settled on a WordPress blog. Not as customisable as blogger, but it has great web stats and is much easier to structure. The benefits over a Vox account are again, the web stats, plus the ability to allow external readers to comment (Wordpress has an excellent anti-spam feature to prevent verbal diahorrea being plastered all over the place in the form of "viagra4-u-now!!!" comments) That's always been a huge downside for me with Vox - I left behind all my friends who don't have Vox accounts. If open commenting opens up with Vox, I'll think about moving back home. ;)

I plan on reading the blogs I'm signed up to here - and I haven't decided whether I'll cross post or not (Wordpress has no auto-cross posting feature for Vox). Vox's major attraction was it's gorgeous themes, the ability to cross post and the more 'personal' nature of the blogs and bloggers.. However, I'm sold on the open commenting of Wordpress. I'm also sold on the rss/atom/email feeds. And I'm officially moving out (until Vox does something else to impress me - then the blogwhore will move again, probably!)
I still plan on reading my neighbourhood posts, and may cross post entries to Vox (that sounds like hard work.. Maybe not, eh?)
Aside from flaunting myself on Vox - I'll be cross-posting to blogger - http://scrapbookingwithwords.blogspot.com/
Why? I felt like a change. ;)
Finally! Vox released a 'personalised' way to display blogs.. The fact that I had to use existing templates for my blog design/layout, was always my pet hate with Vox.
Now I can design my own banners (and hopefully entire templates, eventually!), I'm much happier!
What did we do without Vox?
....Oh right, Livejournal. ;-)
I have a new blog-crush..
Incredibly creative, funny - and the hottest voice I've heard in years. Haha. ;)
I adore Annie Dennison's blog.. Her words of wit and wisdom have made me almost choke on my mid morning black coffee at work..
According to my darling Annie - this year, I will be smarter.
And this year, when it comes to the man in my life, I will remember that a few small sacrifices mean nothing in the grand scheme of things. Oh, and I'll re-awaken our love for sexy underwear (I think my granny pants could do with a break..).
It's the only resolution I'll make this year, and no doubt it'll be more effective than a few half-arsed attempts to give up smoking or drinking red wine. Plus, it'll be worth the effort ;)
