Next he gives suggestions about getting started publishing a blog with Blogger, Windows Live, and TypePad and evaluates which blogging platform might be best for you considering your goals and what type of blog you wish to publish.

**Please Note: Change of Address for This Blog

Friday, May 30th, 2008

I recently moved this blog to a new host and now it has a new location and a change of address. You used to be able to get to the front page by using charismatica.com/bloggingministry or bloggingministry.com ; now the only the official address is:

www.bloggingministry.com 

If you have linked to some of my articles or pages in the past and wish to maintain the links, drop ‘charismatica.com/bloggingministry’ from the permalink and insert ‘bloggingministry.com’ in its place and it should still work.

Dear Friends and Readers:

image Please bear with me while I rebuild this blog. We recently experienced a serious hacking/spam attack that saw more than 100 pages of spam links somehow added to our blog footer and made it necessary to flush our data base and start over in order to get control once more.

In the process I decided to move this blog to a new host. That has complicated matters and will somewhat delay everything being put back together.

If you are running on a WordPress program, I would strongly suggest that you upgrade to the 2.5.1 program as soon as possible. Supposedly they have closed all the gaps that hackers used to gain access to this blog and database.

Blessings Dr.D
