Unfortunately I've put myself in a position of needing you more than you need me.
Once people are hooked into a system such as yours I'm sure you care very little about any ongoing responsibility you might have towards the millions of Bloggers who conscientously post their thoughts and ideas to their own particular and personal audiences. Who, on a regular if not a daily basis, enjoy the amusing, the entertaining, the unusual, the informative and the inspiring offerings.
Many Bloggers with a capital B Mr Google, post because of a love of communication and know and enjoy the fact that they have a responsibility to their faithful readers.
And you Mr Google have a responsibility
to your Bloggers.
The most frustrating thing Mr Google is that I can't just phone you as I could a plumber or an electrician, because you don't actually exist.
The world has done your bidding Mr Google and come over to your way of thinking and doing things. As if there's a choice.
And you sit there in your omniscient manner and think how great you are.
And I'm sitting here thinking how great it would be if you'd fix the BlogThis button...

Alas, Mr. Google is determined to give us what we pay for!
ReplyDeleteThey are probably not making any money on blogger so would be happy if it went away. Other ways to present information on the web I guess.
ReplyDeleteGo Keith go. Venting is very healthy albeit an exercise in futility. It will keep ulcers at bay. Mr. Google is taking his vacation now and next time all bloggers should try to plan vacations that coincide with his therefore, circumventing inevitable angst. Then you just have to let the readers know in advance and we will go to the library during that time. See, wise stress management tactics.
ReplyDeleteYou tell them Keith, I hope they are listening.
ReplyDeleteLearn to do it manually? If it is photo insertion you miss, put the link in yourself? That's what I do. I didn't even know there was a button. I use Photobucket for my photo storage, but any place on the net would work.
ReplyDeleteThanks Shadowmoss. I've tried a number of ways to upload images but they don't work well for me as yet but I'm sure it won't be long and things will be back to normal. Whatever normal is...
DeleteAnother true story to entertain while Keith's images are down:
ReplyDeleteThere was Gage Cloud and his wife Marthy Jane. One day when she was in Elmview, Marthy Jane bought a radio. When she got back to Cherry Winchie, she plugged in the radio and started doing her ironing. Pretty soon, they started playing some good hillbilly music, and Marthy Jane reached over and unplugged the radio and said: "I'm going to save that for when Gage gets home".
Keith, I hope you'll be able to plug in again soon.
Thanks for that Mr Smiley.
DeleteI'm sure we'll be back in the imagery business very soon...
We await in anticipation Keith from the travelling mailbox.
ReplyDeleteGood to hear from you TR. The wait is over. Let me know where you are by email...
