Welcome back to Blogger, Loyal Readers.
After my dalliance with other blog sites, I'm back to the old stand-by. Why? You wonder.
Well, I've used Blogger for years, so I'm familiar with it. Also, it lets me link to blogs from any blog site (unlike evil Type Pad), so I can keep tabs on all of you. And, it's part of the emerging Evil Empire that is Google. Since I've also got a Picasaweb account and a Google+ account, why not go for the integrated approach? If it works, yay! If not, we'll be porting this blog somewhere else that does. "Vote with your feet," my dad always said.
NB: I've had to change the Web address. Some of you desperately need to update your links from the old Live Journal account (!) to this. I'm still Traveling Jones, but without any of the vowels. trvlngjns.blogspot.com
It's good to be home.
