Thanks for commenting. Sorry it's taken me a bit to get back to you. As you can see, the tags are fixed, it was a layout problem on my part. You can limit the tag sizes very easily, as I have done, so it shouldn't be a problem in the future - I just set them to all be 15px. As far as other reasons, I've been swamped lately, but will definitely be posting very comprehensively on the move back to blogger. Stay tuned! Hi Chris! Thanks for commenting.

I've just moved away to an open source .NET platform called presstopia (i don't work for them). http://www.presstopia.com While I can see some of the reasons why, I can also see many reasons why not. e.g. your delicious tags are getting bigger and has strarted moving your homepage around. I had problems like this on blogger, plus no real trackback functionality and no RSS on the free platform. What extra features do you feel blogger gives that have prompted the move? Hi

See people, this is how you do it. You don't need spamcop, you don't need legislation. Just learn what to look for, and contact the people yourself. In most cases, the people don't even know they're being used. Sometimes they'll thank you for taking the time to write them, and not just reporting them as a spammer. Sometimes they'll give you an attitude because they're embarrassed. Sometimes you won't hear back from them at all. Either way, if they fix the problem, that's one less machine on the internet that is enabling spammers and con artists. A few hours later, and port 587 is closed! See people, this is how you do it.
