time sure does fly – even though it does feel a bit longer than three years ago that i started using wordpress.com (which makes me wonder how accurate the happy anniversary from wordpress.com notification really is). as i’ve self-hosted by site for years the the only reason i use or even have a wordpress.com account is to use the jetpack plugin, which by the way i highly recommend to anyone that hosts their wordpress site outside of wordpress.com.

check back for a follow-up article on wordpress.com vs self-hosted wordpress coming soon.
