what do other people think? is it better to redirect to the new site or is it better to have a block of text that reads "this site has moved"?

Blogger does allow it, you can add a meta refresh to the html header
that will send any request for the old site to the new one ...

however ... you may not want to do that, Josh. You may want to leave
the old site there (its free right?) that way all your permalinks
still point to the video posts people have linked to.

You could alter the template to display some sort of "This site has
moved, please update your bookmarks / links" or whatever.

if you do want to redirect the old site just edit your template and
add the following line to the <head> portion:

<meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="0;url="">
