We’ve Moved!

Perhaps you’ve noticed that things have been a little quiet around here lately.  There’s a reason for it.

I’ve been working for the last couple of weeks on setting up a new place for this blog to live.  For whatever reason, over the last nine months or so (since before my statement of repurposing, but especially since then), this site has been experiencing somewhat significant amounts of monthly growth.

That’s a good thing, by the way.

For this and other reasons, I decided it would be good to transition to a system that offers more flexibility and freedom in terms of setup, but also the potential for greater visibility.  That meant moving from WordPress.com’s one-size-fits-all hosting system to a self-hosted domain using the installable, more-customizable WordPress.org platform.

I now present to you the all-new FaithandGeekery.com, which is hopefully bigger and better in nearly every way.  As Inigo Montoya declared in The Princess Bride, “…let me ’splain.”

At FaithandGeekery.com, you’ll find a site that looks familiar but which sports a cleaner, brighter layout (and that also works better in both Firefox and IE).  There’s better support and integration for feeds of various kinds, as well as other customization options that we will continue to utilize more and more to better suit both the needs of readers and authors.

Yup, you heard correctly…authors with an S.  That’s another major change.  I’ve recruited several other guys to join me as The Geeks, and together we’ll not only be able to offer multiple perspectives on the world of geekdom, but also more content more frequently.  As a team, we’ll also hopefully be able to provide posts that better integrate the “faith” aspect of “Faith and Geekery,” because let’s face it…things have been leaning quite a bit more toward simple “geekery” lately!

One other addition you may want to take notice of is our Twitter account.  If you’re on Twitter, please follow us @FaithandGeekery!  The more the merrier, right?  You can also just keep up with our updates via the Twitter widget right on the homepage.  (If you’re saying, “Huh? What’s Twitter?” then click here.)

So I guess that’s about it.  Don’t forget to update your bookmarks and feed reader, because in it’s current form, this site is closing up shop.  You might still want to check back here every once in a while because I’ll probably do something else with this space before too long.

FaithandGeekery, though, is moving on!
