Goodbye Blogger


As time goes on and our memories continue to take up more and more digital space, we've found that we have met our blogspot.com storage limit.  Unfortunately, Google has decided that although everyone is given 10 GB of email space for free, if you want anymore that 1 GB of space for your pictures and videos (via Picasa WebAlbum), you will have to pay at least $2.50 per month. Honestly the cost does not bother me as much as the fact that they will hold my credit card "indefinitely" and charge me every month.  Also, what happens if I don't pay for a month - what will happen to all my data?  Every time you upload an image or video it is stored in Picasa and then linked over to Blogger.  Amazingly, we have had this blog going for over 5 years and just now reached our 1 GB limit (it doesn't make sense to me but who cares) -  All I know is that its time to move and since Wordpress.com offers 3 GB of space for FREE :) I figure we could be there for another 5-10 years.  So, without further ado, Goodbye.
