Well, it's official: you can now find this blog on www.blogcastgirl.com. I now have my own domain...and therefore my own "brand."
It was a pretty easy process. The TypePad Knowledge Base had some great screenshots that walked me through the domain mapping process at GoDaddy.com. I bought the domain before I started the BlogCastGirl Challenge, it just took me a while before I decided which platform to map to.
After considerable hemming and hawing, I decided to map to the TypePad site instead of Wordpress.com site for several of reasons. I'll post those reasons separately.
I followed your experiment with interest, but decided to cancel my TypePad account because while I like the software, most of the templates look scabby to my eye, very amateurish and unprofessional. Next, I decided to try and design my own "look" and what do you know, you have to upgrade to the "Plus" package, When that offer only redimentary control of design, I looked again and I wuld need to upgrade to the next level of design control--$14.95/month now.
To make a long story shot, that ticked me off enough to decide there wasn't enought to offer over WordPress, and if I wanted to pay this much I might prefer Squarespace, which really looks and acts like a new generation of CMS.
Anyway, thanks for your trouble.

I took my first personal loans when I was not very old and it aided my family very much. Nevertheless, I need the student loan once more time.

Humor has been well defined as thinking in fun while feeling in earnest.

Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright.
