I’m bringing back the Festive Link Love Carnivality! Why? I like the title for one. Two - there’s celebrating to be done! This week mark’s the introduction of the new and improved Free From Broke. After many months on Blogger I finally took the leap to Wordpress and self-hosting. If you can imagine, I’ve been tweaking the site every day since Sunday. Luckily I haven’t lost any hair over this (only sleep). I think I’ve gone through about six different themes before deciding on what you see. Let me know what you think! I still have a few things to do but I’m at least at a place where I’m happy for now with the layout.

Since I was busy I only have one carnival this week. Quest For Four Pillars hosted the 9th Money Hackers Carnival - Scream Edition. My article I Switched To Sprint SERO And SAved Some Money was included. Quick side note: I want to thank Patrick at Cash Money Life for answering my questions about the Sprint SERO plan as well as his web hosting service!

Now for some interesting articles from my Google Reader:

    I’m glad the SERO plan and hosting plan worked out for you. I’ve been happy with both. :)

    I like the theme you have, and used it for awhile on one of my other sites, before deciding to go in a slightly different direction.

    Thanks for the mention for the computer article - and I agree, adding RAM is just like having a new computer!

    Thank you all for your comments. I gotta admit, I kept hearing how easy Wordpress is. Thing is, I think I would have been much more confused had I not been tooling around with Blogger for so long. I’m glad I switched though and I should have done it sooner.

    @ Patrick - The SERO plan is addictive! Can’t help but check my texts and emails all the time. I gotta be careful or this new phone will go from being more productive to less productive. I loves me new gadgets!
