I'm moving blog host, from Typepad to Wordpress. I hadn't expected to go, but Typepad's recent newsletters on their company policies are making me edgy and, having been stung, like many academics, by Ning's recent policy changes (Dropbox seems to be going the same way), I'm moving before I feel unwelcome. I also hadn't expected it to be such a major episode, moving all blogposts and other stuff -- kind of like moving house.* I'm leaving this blog up on the web for the next six months or so, then I'll remove it.
Anyway, you'll find me at my new site, http://paulmaharg.com. Still have to give it a lick of paint, finish off a few pages, but the blog's up & running. Hope to see you there!

I'm curious as to what your issues with DropBox's changes are?

Hi Michael, nice to hear from you. I was sent notification of Dropbox TOS alterations a while back, and for once I read the yadayada, and didn't like what I saw. Nor did quite a few users on the forums. See, eg,

I'm not yet dropping Dropbox, but keeping a watching brief on it.
