I've given this a lot of thought.  I truly feel it is time to move on.  There's a number of reasons.  Blogger has been down a lot lately.  Blogrolling is constantly down.  It's been very frustrating trying to eek out the few missives that I do every week.
So it's time to give it up.
Oh, I'm still going to be blogging. But I think it's time to move on to my own server.
So to my fellow bloggers, what do you recommend?   Which webhost (think cheap, I don't have a sugar daddy!).  Which blogging software?  And is there a decent alternative to blogrolling.com?
Please let me know either through comments - or you can email me direct.  joeydestino at yahoo dot com.
