Blow me, Blogger

I am so tired of blogs on blogger, but unfortunately so many of my favorite blogs are on it (Hi Jessica!). Can those of us who have evaded their clutches have an intervention for the rest of them? Half the time I can’t get to their site, or their new posts don’t come to my feed reader, or their 35 most recent posts arrive in an unwieldy clump, or they can’t upload pictures, or… Seriously, let’s have a rescue mission and get our sisters and brothers out alive! Who’s with me?!

    I agree….I am looking to escape the clutches of blogger…waaay to confining.

    And the comments part of blogger sucks too! I found a cool blog the other day and I didn’t want to sign up for a damn blogger account, so I couldn’t leave them a comment!

    CC — well, I recommend going to wordpress.com and signing up for a free account there. You can use your new URL there if you like.

    Kim — agreed. I’ve also noticed that the ‘captcha’ letters you type in now are about 32 letters long. Irritating!

    My freind just got booted from wordpress.com

    They have like a zero tollerance for anything!

    Just becarefull that’s all, or you might get the boot like my friend. I have no idea why he got it, but I do know, he is offline, and I can not talk to him.

    My last read on him, was a product review he posted I believe. (NICE SITE GIRL!)

    True enough, you’re not allowed to do any type of pay per post over there, but as far as I know CC doesn’t do those. Sorry to hear about your friend!

    Wow..I am so sold on WordPress.

    Don’t really understand half of what they are saying..but I am sure I could figure it out.

    Very impressive.

    Lots more flexibility for design and so on.

    It is getting ridiculous when I have to sign in to comment on my own blog over at blogger.

    Or not comment on other bloggers at all.

    The three column one I have now I had to pay a lady for…..she did a great job and it didn’t cost much…but still.

    Jennifer, Blogger is ok. I just wanted to express my concern about wordpress, and I did not know about any pay per post (thanx Plain Jane Mom)

    Our Team is planning a very contiversal (spelling) arguement soon on User’s Rights On The Internet and might be taking on a few other hot subjects. So, this might be my last posting for a while.

    (ya, we have a lawyer GRIN, before I need one) but we are going to excersize our 1st ammendment. Freedom of speech. I encourage everyone to say what you think ! – OS9USER

    Keep up the Good Work!

    Hello everyone. I want to let you all know, blogger is not all cream cheese…. A Google robot blocked one of my blogs weeks ago for spam, and after repeated emails , I can not get it removed. (watch out for the button un-appropiate) That blog was dedicated to google, so where is the spam ?

    I have been thinking myself of pulling out with my team and going someplace else. The daily news, dropped down to once a week postings now, since google has been acting up , and I see they are nearly done with their Beta, so they are forcing the switch (Soon), I knew this day was coming.

    Merry Xmas Everyone !!!
