Or its electronic equivalent. Blogger, which is the system I use to publish this blog, is making some changes that they say affect 0.5% of all the blogs they support. As a proud Half-Percenter (I just found out! So thrilled!), I'm trying to figure out what it means that they will no longer support FTP publishing (if you could say they supported it before, because it's been pretty iffy for a while). They pointed in this direction some time back, and I took a hard look at changing everything I do here, finally figuring out Movable Type or WordPress, etc. etc. etc., and in the end I threw up my hands and just made it look prettier. Now it looks like their new change is going to leave me high and dry (since the blog isn't the only thing, or even the main thing, on this site -- I mean, there's Torn From Yesterday's Headlines, fer pete's sake). So either I'm going to have to get real smart about a new publishing platform real fast (I've been on this one since 2002), or you may see dead air for a little while. You may see this as a win.

One thing I'm trying to understand that I don't seem to see addressed in the FAQs -- my blog isn't just a blog, I have numerous subsites attached to it. The blog appears as my homepage, but it leads to a number of other pages (subdirectories on my site) that aren't Blogger-published. These (and my blog) are hosted on a service that I pay for. So if I bring my blog over to a Custom Domain and reset the DNS for the site's homepage, is it possible to maintain those subdirectories where they were? I'm worried that if I assign the DNS to a Blogger address, I may be causing trouble for updating the rest of my site by FTP, or for accessing it.
hi, if set your blogger blog on your domain roothttp://www.mynonurbanlife.com/ using custom domains, then you wont be able to host any other files there all of the www domain will be hosted on blogger. By the way you set the custom domained blog on a subdomain like blog.yourdomain.com and can continue hosting the files on www.yourdomain.com as you normally do.

Thanks, that was pretty much what I thought, and isn't really what I want to have happen. I don't do that much maintenance on the site, and every time I do I have to figure it all out anew, so I'm trying to keep it simple.
Very nice post.i really enjoy the reading. Thanks for sharing the post.
