After nearly five years on Apple’s MobileMe (née [dot] Mac) servers, this site is moving. You will be able to see new updates at http://simplyrobert.wordpress.com/. It wasn’t an easy decision to migrate the site, and I reserve the right to change my mind at any time. This site will stay live for quite a while, so it gives me some time to try things out before I commit. The move comes down to a couple of issues:

• The URL for my site is just unfriendly, and I don’t want to pay for a domain on top of the cost of an annual MobileMe subscription. It just adds up to a lot of money for a site that I don’t use as a revenue source.
• iDisk has been very flaky these last few months when copying images for use on my site.
• Changing anything about the sidebar would require the entire site to re-upload due to Apple’s lack of PHP support on MobileMe. The larger my site has become (as well as Simply Presentation and Simply Gospel), the more of a deal-breaker this was becoming.

Unfortunately, I won’t be able to use RapidWeaver anymore, and this move will kill my Google page ranking. Still, I think it will be best for my online projects in the long run.

This incarnation of Simply Presentation will stay right here for the next several months until my MobileMe subscription finally expires. This should give you, my kind readers, time to update bookmarks and RSS feeds. The other portions of this site will also be getting new homes on WordPress in the coming months.

It will take time to move all of the old content over. I’m reconstructing many of the old posts and checking links, but all new content will appear only at the new address. Thanks for your continued support of my efforts here, and I look forward to seeing you at my new WordPress home!
