Welcome to my the new WordPress-based CPUGuru Live Spaces blogsite.

Microsoft is terminating their Live Spaces Blogging service and has brokered a deal with WordPress apparently to take up the torch re: our blogging needs.

I had stopped blogging on the Spaces site about a year ago as I was frustrated with the functionality that I could expose on it, so this is actually a good thing.

One downer during the migration was that “cpuguru.wordpress.com” was not available, so I had to go with “cpugroovy.wordpress.com” instead. It’s curious because when I try to browse to http://cpuguru.wordpress.com I just get the message that “Sorry, the username cpuguru and blog cpuguru.wordpress.com are not available.” Curiouser and curiouser…

I was wondering about how the theme of the Live Spaces site would port over and pretty much, it didn’t. A blessing to be sure ;?)

It looks like the categories came over as well as all of my previous posts and their links to videos and the like, so life is good so far.

Now that I’m ported over here, I might just kick the tires over here and blog some of the content that I’d rather not blog on the more work-related Ocean Bytes (http://www.oceanbytes.org) blogsite.

Welcome!
