Comment on DNA Ring For the Geek Amongst Us by Secondary Roads

I had traced my family back to my 2nd great grandfather. He was born in western New York and moved to Michigan before my great grandfather was born. His father was from Vermont (some thought he was from Connecticut). Eventually, I gave up on tracing that line. Then Sylvia, as a Christmas gift, had my DNA tested. Test results revealed my immigrant ancestor. This opened up a whole new world of interesting facts about my family. Richard brought the first plow to North America (from England). His son (my 8th g-gpa), donated the land for the Salem Meeting House and signed the complaint against the women accused of witchcraft in Salem. (Later he recanted.)

The DNA testing made the connection and that opened up the history on a well documented pair of ancestors. I’m very glad that we found that story.

I would definitely like to move my blogger blog to WordPress with my own domain.

I had my own domain and website only once and was through godaddy. I can’t remember the prices though. It was about 5 years back.

I will look around at the sites that you mentioned and tally up some prices in my head to see if I can budget it soon. I hope I can.

I prefer to host my own blog, this way I have complete control over it. Also fantastico int the CPanel of your hosting like Hostgator makes it super easy to host your own blog.

I got my domain name through Hostgator. They have the privacy thing, and it made it seamless when I set up my blog on their server – with your amazing help, of course.

Comment on What To Do When Your Computer Gets a Virus by The Older Geek

Kathy, I couldn’t agree with you more. After spending several hours researching the original problem, the cure was almost as painful as the disease. I’m not afraid of reformats (I usually do them every year, anyway, when I can, on all the home computers) and this solution was much easier. Plus, as you said, YOU’RE SURE it’s clean.

Thanks for your comment!
