From time to time when I upgrade my WordPress blog I find that the wordpress themes that I have used in the past don’t work well anymore.  In a way I find that to be a source of annoyance.  I get comfortable with my themes, and so I like to stay with the one that works.  I imagine you’ve heard the phrase “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.”  Well, that’s how I feel about just about everything in my life.  That’s probably why I’m not a famous inventor! So I end up changing my theme with great reluctance.

But for those of us who always like to improve on things, there are plenty of great themes to pick from.  Some themes you have to pay for, but the best free wordpress themes are simply awesome as well.  You don’t have to pay an arm and a leg to get a really great theme.  For those folks who are just now thinking about starting to blog and want to use WordPress, it is always a good idea to make sure that the hosting site is wordpress friendly.  I was thinking about buying a new domain for Teri to use and was looking around to see if I could find a list of the top 10 wordpress hosting companies.  I was pleased to see that the hosting company that I already use was on the list!

Although I have not used any other type of software for my blogging purposes, I have to say that the WordPress has been extremely satisfactory in every way.  I cannot imagine any other type of platform could make it any easier!  I will admit that I’m still learning a lot about its features!  I’m sure that there are plenty of techno-geeks out in cyberspace that look down their noses at us novice bloggers, but I think that as long as everyone is having good clean fun, well then we should make room for each other, novice and expert alike.
