Welcome To My Dot Com
Nobody can accuse me of jumping on a bandwagon when a new fad hits. Well, er, okay not ALL the time. Sure, there was that whole "Star Wars" thing.
Then the Beanie Babies craze.
And that Pirates phase.
Oh, and the Blogging obsession I am still immersed in.
But other than THOSE, I am not a sucker for following the crowd (that you know of or that I'll further admit to).
My proof? Well, it took me a whole 7 years to finally get my own domains. Ha! So there!
Even after all those investors lost millions in the Dot-Com boom and bust in 2000, here I am just getting started. Yeah, I may be late to the party, but at least I'M not seeking financial backers like Webvan.com or Pets.com.
Unless you really, really want to be, that is.*
Actually, huge thanks go to Kathy Fredrick over at The Junk Drawer. Months ago I was playing around with the idea of getting a .com and I kept checking to see if the domains I wanted were available. They weren't.
Now you can reach me by typing in:

So how do you post your posts without the help of Blogger? I am always stumped by how that works since I am so used to going to Blogger and inputing my posts in their easy post templates.
Congrats...you are the Queen of your NEW domain :)

Maureen -- Congratulations on your own domain! I noticed it was working late yesterday. Good for you!

I've seen two commercials for Go Daddy. One features Danica Patrick and the other Amanda Beard. Both of them are wearing not enough clothing and they both look sultrily into the camera and say, "I'm a Go Daddy girl."
When can we expect your commercial?
VP: Actually I still am on Blogger; they now have a feature so you can use custom domains.
*royal cupped hand wave to Bradley* Why thank you my fine feathered friend!
Kathy: And as I said in the post, I couldn't have done it without you... thank you so much!
Frogster: Har! I guess I'll do their commercials when they want to go OUT of business!!! LOL!
Does having your own domain make much of a difference??
CF: Kathy at The Junk Drawer explains it very well, as does The Blog Bloke. Take a look at their posts I linked to, and I am sure they have already answered many of your questions. If not send me an email if I can be of help!
Congrats! That is WAY cool!!!
Have a great day!!
Linda
Awesome! Will have to give that a try!
Congrats! Very cool! Might have to check into this!
Well, now, isn't that super cool??! I'm totally impressed with your geekishness! :-) And I mean that as a high compliment!! Janet
Congratulations on your domains. May you live happily ever after!
Personally I would rather be blogging :)
I'm so glad that you're glad that it worked for you. Cheers!
