snaps.jangro.com -> Jangro.me

I set up this posterous blog as a subdomain of jangro.com as an experiment to see how traffic/SEO would react to a subdomain of my well established jangro.com domain.  I struggled with what to call it and settled on "Snaps.jangro.com" as in snapshots.

While this blog has grown to become my favorite place to post personal stuff, I've grown to dislike the name.

It's time for a change.

The good part about having a unique last name is that I've pretty much been able to grab every TLD for it.  (with the exception of jangro.net, which I still regret not grabbing 10 years ago).  So now I'm pointing jangro.me to this blog.

"Jangro Me!" is a nod to all the folks who have loved to turn my last name into a verb over the years.  Sometimes it gets suffuxes added to it as well, like Jangrosize and jangy.

More changes

At the same time, I've also ditched the SweetCron lifestream blog that I had hosted on scottjangro.com. While I love the concept, the software is too tempermental and was posting too many error pages.  The good news is that some folks have recently picked up the abandoned open source code and will be turning it into something more solid, maybe even a hosted solution.  In the meantime, I'm moving on.

Just in time, thanks to Sam Harrelson, I've learned of flavors.me and have put ScottJangro.com up as a flavors.me lifestream blog. 

What Sam does, so must I.

I dropped $20 to get my own custom domain.  Sam did too.  Check it out, it's a great solution.
