Why, you ask? Well, for one, I’m too lazy to move over to something like Moveable Type or GreyMatter, although I have considered both. So I figured, if I’m going to stick by Ev and Blogger, I should support the work. And I’m I’m going to pay to support the work, I might as well get something out of it too.
(Wait – this is starting to sound really self-serving.)
Anyway, this will also aid some plans I have for the site. I hope to start posting longer “rants” to the “My $0.02” page, and I’m going to make that Blogger-based too, when I’m ready. But hopefully my $3 a month will help Ev improve the system.
