If you don't want to lose your blog in the future like you did already, you should own the url.

That may significantly complicate your task, but this is the price for future-proofing your means of contact.

Good point on the URL. I had a custom URL on posterous. And even had it on Tumblr.Com. I let my old URL expire...maybe it's time to revisit that
