Who is the person who thinks they have to keep improving good things? I tried to read some of my friend's blogs on my reading list tonight and all I could see was a notice that Google wants you to put a + in front of some one's name for some insane reason. I also noticed that when I try to print a page from my blog it doesn't print... anywhere else I can print just fine. I guess when you use Blogger anything you post belongs to them now.
I have noticed that you can get your blog pages printed professionally now. When I first started blogging, I printed the first two years of my posts, my self, and put them in a notebook. A nice way of journeying I thought. I guess I will have to try to out think them and maybe write my post in office and print from there before I put it on Blogger... Hey maybe I won't post on Blogger... I always had to remember that others were reading and so I held back on some of the things I wanted to say. Just use office and print only for my own journal. I think I like that idea...
When I first got my computer, I was in a new world. Anything I could think of, I could find. Now some of the same sites want to charge for obits after a certain length of time. I even joined up with something that Ancestry.com offered and placed my pictures and information freely and enjoyed sharing with my family. After a time they wanted me to pay for that site. I refused and went to take some of my pictures down. They quickly told me that they knew I had "hot linked" a couple of pics. I laughed at them and still got my pics back. I hate that they took my information and now it is theirs to pass on to anyone else who pays to use the site.
I will be back to catch up with my blogging friends from time to time. For now I think I'll be working on making notebooks for my family to enjoy (or not). I hate change !!

You can always send them to yourself by email. That's what I do. Or, you can type them up in email and highlight/copy/paste them to blogger. That way you always have a copy and can even print from there.
Oh no, don't go away!
I hate change too.... And I get nervous thinking about others reading my blog sometimes, too. That's why I'm private again. I like the idea of printing them out...strange that they don't allow you to print your own blog posts!!
I'm very frustrated with Google right now - the fact that they are stopping Google reader is so frustrating. I hate change too.
Seems to be everywhere - change is all around us at the moment.
I'll join in the I hate change chorus..especially when it isn't a good change. I blog very little now, mostly because I can't think of any thing to say, but I still love to read my friends blogs.
Leave well enough alone blogger!
Well most of the time I do my posts in Word first and can save them as a doc... that way Word catches most spelling errors - note the word MOST.
But the old original blogger was really so much easier to use. Now, I mostly use live writer which then posts to blogger for me. It allows me to do things the old original blogger used to do.
Funny how so often "progress' ain't!
I just managed to print a page from your blog and one from mine. But copying to Word works better then I don't get 7 pages of all the stuff in the sidebars.
