Hello, and welcome to the new Mattheosis.com, and so long to Google’s Blogger. I am now Powered by WordPress.org.  I have been having to many problems with Blogger, even though it is a great platform.  I figured, I want to be able to interact with my readers more often and be able to provide them a unique blog experience.

Reading about Blogger, I began to see that is was nothing more than an avenue for a lot of spam.  I read some statistics online, and found that Blogger is 75% spam, or at least within the last year.  Hence, my blogs were on occasion disabled, until I could prove otherwise.  That was something I didn’t need, and in my humble opinion it was ridiculous. But, don’t knock what Google is doing, for it is a great way to promote their Adsense business throughout the entire blogosphere.  One of their major money makers.

There are some great Google Bloggers out there, and I have had the chance to interact with a great bunch of them.  They, also, have the some of the same complaints I was having as contextual blogger.  Many of the abilities found within WordPress.org are the very same abilities that Bloggers have been asking for, for a long time.  So, I switched.  WordPress.org is for blogging what Firefox is for internet browsing.

Lastly, I have been paying for great hosting but have not been using it.  That’s plain stupid.  Now, I am, and I want to branch out.
