So Long and Thanks for All
the Dice!
So, this blog is built with a lovely and well known blogging tool:
Blogger.
Blogger has decided that FTP, a nearly forty year old, extremely light,
terribly simple protocol is now beyond their ability to support. Over
the years, they have proven that they suck at supporting FTP, so this
decision is not a surprise.
Without FTP, I cannot use this domain and hosting. Blogger, a “free”
service is now going to cost me half of what I paid for this year of
hosting. Thanks Blogger!
I tried to set up Dusty Dice with a BlogSpot.com domain, however, since
Blogger and BlogSpot are free, dustydice.blogspot.com is already taken.
So, indeed, Blogger has killed Dusty Dice - not that I have been doing
a great job with posting. However, I have moved the DD content to
BlogSpot ... for now, allow me to point you to:
I may eventually consolidate all the DD content to my main blog. Then
again, I may not! However, this post will be here until my hosting runs
out in August.
I want to thank all of my readers. You guys are great. There are not
many of you but you have spirit!
And lastly: Thanks, Blogger!
