During last week, you may have noticed that for a little while The Wolf’s Howl was unavailable, due to a violation of the WordPress Terms of Service. Turned out that the “Review My Post” links that I had to PayPerPost were not allowed. You’ll notice that they are now all gone!
What the situation highlighted for me was that I didn’t have an effective back up of The Wolf’s Howl - I had most of the posts but not the links or the pages. While I was trying to sort out the violation and get wolfieb.wordpress.com back up and running, I also set up The Wolf’s Howl over at Blogspot.
The situation with WordPress is now resolved, but I’ve decided that I’m going to keep the Blogspot Howl going; there will now be two Wolf’s Howls - one here at WordPress and one at Blogspot - which will be identical from now on. If nothing else, they’ll provide me with an effective back up!

Aren’t you worried about Google and duplicate content?

No. Should I be?
I’m expecting that at some point I’ll move over to a self-hosted solution for the blog, but that’s a little while in the future. For now - while I’m still relatively new to the whole blogging thing - I’m going to run with the two.
