I was not exactly locked out but I did have to do the word verification each time I posted. I have been looking to leave Blogger and this has made me a bit more determined to do so. Quite honestly, my intention of moving has been partly from posts like yours but also I am finding the Blogger design tiresome. I am not so sure that the general public has much problem with blogger and there are a lot of lawyer blogs on Blogger. I think Blawg Review is on Blogger. So my family law blog will probably stay on Blogger or stay there longer. My business law blog is moving. Business clients, I think, may have more a problem with Blogger and I am having a problem presenting what I want to present on Blogger. Now, I need to get out and make some rent money.
