I had to change web hosts, which is a chore as most change is, but?I think it will work out for the better as I was able to find a new domain name,?rgaphoto.com, instead of RAflexions.com. I'm working on getting the new website, that includes a link to the blog, up over the holidays. If you?go to http://wordpress.org/hosting/?the list web hosts who?support the installation of wordpress for free. Wordpress is also free. I?signed up with Bluehost as they were listed first. So far a good experience for a good price. It just takes time... Best, Blog :-) ?Bob Adler Palo Alto, CA http://www.rgaphoto.com ________________________________ From: R.

I like wordpress, myself, and if you use the free wordpress.com hosting service they handle all the backend stuff for you.? The downside is of course that you have only a limited number of skins and styles... but there's a good selection and the price is right. There are apps, usually browser-based, that some people think make posting somewhat eaiser, but they're not really necessary.? Personally I don't think they're all that helpful, although I have experimented with a couple.? I'd rather use the word processor for text, my usual photo software for pix,? and do the layout work when I get to a nice cafe' with wifi...
