Why switch?

Switching your primary email address or website address, just like changing you cell phone number, is always a stupid idea. People love to go to the same address and look for the same website, send email to the same address and call the same number to find the same person, even after a couple of years. If any one of this is no longer available, the one who wishes to contact you would simply give up - and that certainly would be your loss.

The reason I used xanga as my blog was due its popularity. Vast majority of my friends/classmates have been using them, thus creating a seemingly powerful community/blogosphere. One of the good thing is that everyone can make easy comments in xanga. Of course, comments are appreciated by the author as a kind of support and communication. And more comments seem to prove one's, well, somehow, popularity. But the funny thing is, users in xanga (esp chinese users) would go to others' blog and say things like"pass by, cm", hoping others would drop by and leave comments in return. A way to make him/herself popular through the blog? Maybe.

I spent some time in modifying the appearance on Xanga, but when I switched to mac a couple of months ago, xanga started to get me frustrated. The way of presentation of my blog was no longer the same; support for Mac users is poor and I just cannot choose font style and size which I'm fond of. I feel so good when I use Blogger: the original template is already nice, and after some easy amendments, it looks elegant and pretty damn good. Besides, I don't have to use the HTML tag every now and then when I wish to do something as easy as skipping lines.

Same thing in here, the scattered pieces: jc...*, comments are appreciated. But most important thing is, hopefully you can get something out of what I'm writing here.
