End of an Era / Decisions, Decisions

Don't worry faithful chum(p)s, I'm not kicking the blogging habit. Nothing like that.

However, those good people at Blogger/Google have informed me that as of 26 March I will no longer be able to post my blog via FTP from Blogger. This isn't an unreasonable diktat. It's a fair decision. I'm told that less than .5% of active blogs on Blogger publish via FTP to their own hosting.

But it does mean the following:
  • I need to decide whether to continue with Blogger
  • Whatever I do I will need to rehack my blog to pieces to make it work again
  • Updates may well disappear from March 26 until when I get my arse in gear to sort it out

The simplest solution would be to stick with Blogger, but I would lose the ability to customise my template with PHP additions etc which I do so love to do. I've been wondering for a while about the possibility of moving to a different blogging solution which I have complete control of so mayhap this is a good chance to do so. Although this will mean trying to find a way to transfer all the posts.

Or perhaps this is time to archive All In A Day's Work and start something new..

Whatever I choose, things will never be the same..

Not that they ever are anyway.

Since you don't normally come here for me to bore you to tears (HAHAHA) with this type of carp I will also let you know that I have started writing some songs for a potential solo EP(s). Oh gosh. Strangeday will still be feeling my love, but I'd like to try something a little different alongside that. Knowing as you all do my high capacity and dedication to things like this, I think we can expect the results of this project sometime in 2020.

Have a good rest of the week.

overandout..

1. The Child freaks me out to no end...
2. Will we notice a gap in posts? (oh-ho, ah-ha)
3. I shall be sad to see AIADW go, if it does
4. I look forwards with aniticipation to SoloToboe. Perhaps the first could be called, "Tobyone"? Both your thingumy and a reference to soloness...

Why is my comment not on the site?

1. His message is valid nonetheless..
2. Oh zing. Yes.
3. We'll get a new blog. This time with an untwistable stomach!
4. The project has a name. It is not Toby One. Although it was originally going to be. Thanks for your anticipation though..

Oh and your comment is on the site.

So there.

yes, it annoyingly appeared when I posted the query about it not appearing.
