Darn you, AOL!!

I just got an email from AOL telling me that they will be closing their journals for good on October 31st.  So I somehow have to figure out how to transfer all my entries to another service.  I don't even know where to start.. makes me mad.

Me too!   I have 4 years of my life (and my family's) in my journal to move somewhere.  I just hate to think I would lose any of it.

If I understand correctly they will be moving our journals to blogspot. It's fairly easy to use. If you click on the magic smoke link on the top of your journal page it will give you all the details. There is also a way to download all your entries to your computer but haven't figured it out yet.

I'm on blogspot already but will miss my aol journal. Can't believe they are giving it up. My address is www.jlsoule.blogspot.com.

Good Luck!

I've had a blogger (blogspot) account for a few years and actually like it so much better than aol...just for the fact that you can really make the space yours. Supposedly AOL is supposed to be making it so we can easily transfer all our entries and comments over to blogger, which will be nice that all those entries will not have to be one by one transfered or worse lost.

If you need any help at blogger if you decide to go there let me know. Here's mine:

I know...it stinks!

I plan on moving to blogger, once they tell us how to transfer everything from our old journal over...hope to see you there!
