Update...yes already

So following my last post I dug into the blogger settings and found in the settings tab a promising looking setting in the publishing section, publish to a Custom Domain. After looking at the setup instructions provided, I re-logged into Google Apps and navigated to the domain settings tab and found the advanced DNS settings link under the domain names section. From there I was able to log into enom, the DNS company Google is using to register your domains with when you sign up for Google Apps.

Found under the Host records section where to add my new CNAME entry. I added blog and assigned it to the Google address: ghs.google.com.

After that was saved in enom, I navigated back to blogger and added my domain. Wham, all done and it works great. Took me longer to write this and go back and look at how I did it then it did to actually do it.

Next on the to do list:
  1. Add Google Analytics
  2. Figure out how to get http://brianjkopp.com to forward to http://www.brianjkopp.com. (right now the first link just goes to the iGoogle (Personalized) start page with my domain in a big ugly gray bar on the top)
