You have blog.whatever, which you paid for. You also have blog.wordpress.com. When you make the switchover, it will only affect blog.whatever. blog.wordpress.com will still be here.

Check with your host about setting up a mirrored domain to tinker with before repointing. You might also have to wait 60 days before repointing.

Is GoDaddy your hosting provider as well?

Just asking.

I have a domain purchased on GoDaddy and have it directing to my blog of wordpress.COM (so the nameservers are NS1.WORDPRESS.COM, etc).

I plan on moving to .ORG for a few reasons and just found out that I can't access my FTP since the domain is pointing to wordpress and not my hosting account. Is there a way to keep everything up so i can set things up over at .ORG and make the switch without much downtime?
