That’s a fabulous reason to have an empty store! Thanks for the offer, and for visiting.

I remember how much you liked her, so I thought you might like to know that we missed Dart’s birthday last month. According to the Atari Force timeline, she was born in early January 2007. I didn’t even hear about the baby shower, otherwise I would have gotten her a little something.

I jumped from LJ to Wordpress in response to Church's post, and it's something I'd recommend. It saves drafts, has space for uploads, can make pages, and is generally easy to use. It's not quite as customizable design-wise (I think you have to pay for real CSS editing), but there's stuff you can do with headers and sidebars. It's been working great for me. They have a new blogger importer, but I don't know how well it works. Now to work on those other blogging points...

** I’ve had that Atari Force post bookmarked for a few days now, but it’s a long one and I haven’t had a chance to read it yet. I figured if it was any good, you’d come across it at some point and recommend it. I have the series on my to-re-read pile for the holiday weekend! :-)

** The IDW Fallen Angel has been pretty good — #10 was one of my favorite single issues of last year — so much so that I picked up the two DC TPBs released so far. I actually think the IDW run is better, but both are engrossing reads. I’m looking forward to Donaldson’s issues, too, because Supermarket was a visual treat.

** Blogger’s not terrific, but as free services go, I can’t complain too much. They are frustratingly slow to adopt new features, though, and just when I was seriously considering switching over to WordPress, I heard new Blogger doesn’t convert so easily. I’m now looking into switching over to Joomla and iJoomla Magazine for v2.0 of my site, probably over the summer.

Near the end of her first series run, there was a Gremlin… no, wait, she had a Kanga as a girl!

I didn’t like the lack of control Blogger demanded. It seemed to go down regularly, and since it was a free service, there was no recourse. Very frustrating.

I like that WW drawing, though it makes me wonder why Diana doesn’t have a pet. I mean Superman has Krypto, Bats has Ace, and Supergirl has Streaky.

Knowing today’s DC they’d probably give her a snake or something. Yet I think she needs a pet duck.:)

Really? Why not such a fan of Blogger? I’ve been using it for nearly seven years now and have little to complain about.

I might like a little more control over the backend code, but the same would hold true for WordPress. I think the one thing I’d like to see on Blogger is the ability to export my data to an Access DB, for better portability.
