  Can I change the primary website name of my blog — I had a posterous blog that got transferred over but I like that posterous name better — or do I need to cancel and open another one? Thx

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  You can:
  Change a Blog Address

  Note the 7. step:

  The final option on this screen allows you to discard your current address. This option will permanently disable the address and you will not be able to reuse it. Only select this option if you are sure you will not use the address again. If you want to redirect traffic to the new blog, you can keep the address and purchase the Site Redirect upgrade.
