Getting Org-anized

You may or may not have noticed that my url has changed from got2run4me.wordpress.com to got2run4me.com — with the help of Ryan Sullivan at WP Site Care, the move from the free WordPress.com blogging platform to the self-hosted WordPress.org platform was pretty seamless. He worked his magic while I was sleeping, and the post I had pre-written and scheduled for the morning after sailed through cyberspace without a hitch.

The one thing that was lost in the transition is subscriptions via the WordPress.com “subscribe” feature. If that’s how you were following, you will need to subscribe by email or RSS to make sure you don’t miss any posts. Those subscribe boxes are still where they always were.

Now that this blog is self-hosted, there are tons of plug-in programs and features that I will be experimenting with–hopefully I can test things out without totally screwing everything up! The first thing that I will be toying with is the comment interface. (I promise I won’t use anything with captcha!) I will be trying new comment programs over the next few weeks and really would like your feed back–since I love every single one of your comments, I want to make it as easy as possible to comment and stay engaged.

This is the basic Jetpack comment interface–what do you think?

When I use it the “Enter your comment here …” text doesn’t disappear when I type my comment, and that annoys me!
