Welcome to my new digs! As you can see, it’s very similar to what I had but much, much cleaner. My 3-column template with Blogger was not loading consistently and managed to cause me much grief. I also didn’t care for the lack of threaded comments. Not to mention the very long name of my blog. I feel as if I’ve lost ten pounds just by shortening it. I hope I didn’t lose anyone in the process (crossing fingers and toes). Please update our readers and blog rolls to reflect the new address.
It may take awhile for me to get used to the new features and I am still toying with a custom header so that may change down the line but I hope you all like it. For those that are participating in my Confession of a Reader series, I will post the new button on my sidebar tomorrow so please grab it if you want an early start to Saturday’s post.
What do you think?
UPDATE: If anyone has problems addng me to Google reader, use this feed: https://bookchatter.net/feed
I got my links updated, Ti, to reflect your new address. Congratulations on your new blog home!
Yay!! And the threaded comments work.
Hmm, you’re right, it is cleaner! Looks great!
I’m here! Yay for the new site! 🙂
I’m always so impressed at people who figure out how to move!
Congratulations on your new home!
I changed my links so I can find you! I think your new home looks great! I’m glad you kept that header picture since I really like it! This blog looks larger, lighter and more open. It’s very nice, I hope it works well for you.
(When I’m ready to change things up some day in the future, I may come find you for advice!)
I don’t know much but I’d be happy to help with what I can.
It’s so pretty, Ti! I’m glad you went with this name.
Oh and I love the tagline.
Thanks for the help with that!
I like your new digs. When I switched to self-hosted it took me quite a it to get t together so good luck.
Love the new look Ti…I’ve updated the links.
I updated you in my Google Reader, and get your posts, but for some reason it comes up as Title Unknown, instead of Book Chatter. I’ll just have to remember that that is you!
It has something to do with my header title being removed but I added back and hid it but maybe it takes awhile for it to come thru? You can rename it in Google Reader but I will keep looking.
Okay…if you use this feed it should be come thru okay:

Congratulations! I’ve added your new URL to my reader.
I am in awe! The layout is GREAT and seemed to have accomplished the move effortlessly. I am not sure that I will ever be brave enough to attempt this!
I will update my reader right now 🙂
No problems in moving you on my Google Reader. I liked the little moving van on your old site. Very cute. Congratulations on having your own domain.
Welcome to your new home! I have had no regrets at all switching from blogger, to being self-hosted and using wordpress. I thinkyou will be happy with your decision to change over!
Yay!!!! Was it easier than you thought it would be, or was it a PITA?
It wasn’t too bad but I chickened out and didn’t go the self-host route. I just got the domain name and then re-created what I wanted in WordPress and then brought all the posts and comments over. I just have to re-direct review links to the WordPress posts now. Maybe next year I’ll take the last step and self host but for now I am happy with this.
Love your new site, Ti! Have updated my reader.. 🙂
Great site Ti! I’ve got you all moved and updated!
Okay, I’ve updated my subscription. Love the new look, and congrats on your domain!
wow!!! congrats to you!! i (now) know how much work is involved in moving and LOVE your new layout. very tidy and reader-friendly.
as for the kinks…they work themselves out eventually! 🙂
Your new site looks awesome! I would love to do the same but am chicken as I’m afraid I’d lose everything. Was it a big adjustment to go from Blogger to WordPress? What’s the difference between what you’ve done here and self hosting?
I like your name and header picture. I identify you with that white adirondack chair that is so calming to look at!
I’m here (waving Hi !!!)
I like it!!! Now I’m rethinking NOT moving to WordPress!!! ACK. : )
Just wanted to stop by and say while I’m ridiculously behind in commenting, I’ve updated your feed in my Google Reader! Congratulations and I like the new look!
