what breaks when a blog is renamed?

Ciaran O'Riordan	Wednesday 23 August 2006 7:10:03 am Hi. If a user renames their blog, what changes? 1. the contents of the <title></title> tag pair in the RSS feed will obviously change. (no?) 2. Will the blog's URL change? 3. What will happen to the old URL? 4. Will the URL for the RSS feed change? My example: I have put a lot of effort into publicising the URL of my blog, and the URL of the RSS feed for my blog, but readers of my blog who use the RSS feed are complaining because the name ("weblog") is confusing and non-descriptive. So I'd like to know if I can fix the name problem without creating broken-link problems - and I don't want to do a test because I don't know if renaming is reversible. Thanks for any help. Here's my blog: http://fsfe.org/en/fellows/ciaran/weblog

It seems that renaming a blog is completely safe:
