flora's on the move -

to here.

Well it finally happened.

Aol is closing j-land forever. To use their own words -

"Why is AOL Journals shutting down?
It's never an easy decision to shut down a feature, especially one like AOL Journals that you have used for a long time. We have to look carefully at all of AOL features to make sure we are offering as much value to our members as possible. With many good blogging services now available on the Web, AOL Journals aren't as widely used as they once were. So we've decided to focus more on popular free features like e-mail, AIM®, AOL® Radio and AOL® Desktop..."

so, they're closing because they singlehandedly, intentionally, ran it straight into the ground. The blame rests squarely on their shoulders. Congratulations AOL!

I can't wait to see how well they "manage" the other "valuable" features...

anywho - I transferred the old site to this shiny new site - just so every once in a while, I can walk down memory lane...

Succulent Wisdom - will be moving in next door too...
