Just wanted to drop a quick note and let you know that Garry Conn has indicated that time is running out on his "free wordpress blog offer." If you need a blog, this is a great deal. I actually took him up on the offer and plan to use the blog for "an experiment." So, if you always wanted to move off of Blogger or start a fresh blog or whatever, now is your chance. Check it out. (Note that I do not get paid if you get a free blog from Garry -- I just think it is cool).

Hey;
As many of you know, I am traveling to Asia this week. No, I am not going to the Olympics to compete in Diving, as has been rumored. So, I will be posting from there and trying to add in a few pictures as well this week.
Before I get on the plane, I wanted to tell you about a phone call I got from a reader. The reader was asking me about the difference between WordPress.com and WordPress.org. He was frustrated becuase he had a WordPress.com blog and could not monetize it the way he wanted to. He was not aware of WordPress.org.
What's the difference? Well, WordPress.com is a hosted platform that allows you to have a free blog. You can register and WordPress.com and they will host your blog on their servers and you have to follow their rules. Your blog is hosted on the wordpress.com domain, and will have a name like momsblog.wordpress.com. This is great for a lot of people that just want to try blogging for the first time to see what all the buzz is about. It is not great for people who want to make money blogging. It is very hard to take a business seriously that is hosted on a free platform.
