Owning My Links
about 2 months ago - 1 comment
Part of the reason I started noodling with Wordpress was the ability to “own” my own site. Not have it hosted elsewhere, not beholden to anyone else’s whims and limitations. I can do what I want with the template and the look and the feel and the content. I can even move the URL around, More >
