The New www.sweetsauer.com

After a week-long attempt, I am happy to announce that I have successfully merged my typepad blog with the domain name www.sweetsauer.com.  You can get to this blog with that address, sweetsauer.com (no www), as well as at sweetsauer.typepad.com.    You might want to update your bookmarks or links if you link to this blog, but you do not have to...the old way still works.

I bought the domain name back in January of 2004 and it took me until March of '05 to launch my site.  I was great about updating it until I discovered blogging a few months later.  Typepad was so much easier to use and I loved the concept of stacked posts.  At that point, the sweetsauer.com site fell to the back-burner. 

If any of you have a domain name and a Typepad blog (not sure if you can map a domain through blogger or not?), it is pretty easy to set up domain mapping.  Just a thought :)

Hey- Did any of you notice the little butterfly icon next to my url in the address bar? If not, push Ctrl + F5 now to clear your image cache.  Or bookmark me to your favorites :)   I got directions for how to make it here at Typepad.  I created the image in Photoshop and then went to this website to turn it into a .ico file.  Pretty easy to do and I always like new, fun ways to personalize this blog.

Another feature that I have added to the sidebar is a Google Search, specifically for this site.  That way you can search for a specific topic, post, etc without having to read through the Archives.  Give it a whirl and let me know how it works!  ****Please note that this site was just indexed with Google and it may take a couple of days before the search works correctly!****
