New Blog Service?
KF4LMT’s Monitoring Post may be moving to WordPress. I’ll be trying WordPress out for awhile to see how it works; both the Monitoring Post and Stray Thoughts have been combined into the Monitoring Post. A name change may be in the future as well. The WordPress link is: http://kf4lmt.wordpress.com/
One of the advantages WordPress may have is a better mobile interface via a Blackberry App, which is what I’m using to make this post.
Stay tuned for more.
