Greetings good citizen, I [think] I have found a new host but if they are right (and blogger has been around for thirty years) the problem isn't so much apathy as it is antiquity. Blogger hasn't retained its 'relevance'...and I suspect turning comments off and replacing them with the +1 tag pushed them deeper into the hole.
Well, I'm about to craft my first post for the new place and it will be interesting to see is the comments are active.
Guess it depends on WHY one blogs. If you want to showcase your wordsmithery without the need to defend/evolve your point of view then blogging in a fishbowl is for you.
Maybe it's me that missed the memo but the net is a place for 'dialog' and that means a two-way street.
We all know stupid is full of rudeness and can't string together a single coherent thought without using hatred for a binder.
It is here I will remind the occasional reader that, like money, hatred is a LEARNED THING.
Didn't collect many eyeballs yesterday, which tells me I have already worn out my, er, 'welcome' [such as it was] on Facebook. If your 'friends' won't read you, do you have any?
Like most people, I KNOW a ton of people but only a few make the 'friends' list. I don't 'ask' for much and for most of us this is the critical measure of friendship, that you are the person people call on when they need help. Perhaps those I count as friend don't think I value them because I never ask them for anything, making my current short list a 'self-inflicted wound'.
So the decision has been made to keep the old Futurist limping along while the 'new site' Humans Only is launched on wix.com
[Things may get so 'hairy' at the new site that I will run back here with my tail between my legs...we'll see.]
Either way, the 'clock' is ticking.
Before I can launch I have to first clean up the template I selected...the example stuff isn't erasing, making me less sanguine about success.
Thanks for hanging in there,
