Heading for A Change

November 5th, 2008

It’s been a while since I have written on my website. The time schedules apart, my motivation for new creative thinking has almost dried up.

I have been on Wordpress since 2005. However I have found that it takes a lot of effort for a single person to update and maintain this highly acclaimed application. I have to take constant back-ups of my database/files/wordpress files and keep up with the current version as and when it has been released. It’s time consuming and stressful and sometimes puts me in a panic state of mind - what if the new upgrade doesn’t work for me.

Moreover to maintain the following of readers I am always under pressure to write frequently which given my crazy mood pangs and writing skills is not possible. I am always searching for bright ideas to keep the crowd entertained but it’s not easy sometimes. Besides my hectic schedule the motivation to to write something creative has been dwindling in the past few weeks. The website has lived it’s lifeline and served it’s purpose. It’s time to now move on to the next generations of apps.

Given the limited resources (creatively and technically) I have decided to shift to Twitter and Tumblr temporarily. I find using these social networking tools an efficient way to express my thoughts with less time and effort. I will continue to write for my website till the time I decide to replace it with something more useful but not frequently. I am heading for a change pretty soon.

    Wouldn’t it be easier to move the wordpress.com. Atleast you need not wory about updating the wordpress files ;-)

    I recently moved my blog to Habari. Just to try it out. :-)

    You’re right. I should think about doing that. Is there a way I can shift my current database to Wordpress.com and redirect it to my domain? let me know. That’d solve my problems.

    What i would suggest is updating wordpress by going into ur Cpanel. Fantastico Deluxe. It backs up your files and upgrades to the new version. No hassles.
