My fellow bloggers from other countries are probably shaking their heads and wondering what in he hell is going on there. That makes two of us.

Something About Blogging Platforms
A fellow blogger is making the move to WordPress from Google’s Blogger service. The blogger said that lots of people are doing that and that there seemed to be some issues with the function of the platform. In looking at Blogger’s twitter account I discovered that there hasn’t been a new post since May whereas WordPress posted an article on October 21. That isn’t good or is it?
I think what goes on behind the scenes is important when choosing a blogging platform. New features are important as long as they enhance functionality and improve workflow. Sensible changes can improve your experience and when the platform works the way it should you can focus on creating and connecting vs. always doing maintenance.

Maybe Change Will Come, Maybe
When there is so much tragedy there comes a time when you become numb to it all. It’s just another event that unfortunately has changed the lives of people on both sides. One would think you would like to change the tone, change what is happening, change the future by changing the present. We allow things to happen because the changing part makes some uncomfortable and they don’t want to sacrifice anything. Yeah we all want life, liberty and happiness but what are we willing to give to get it. I hope one day people will stop killing other people for sport or because someone brainwashed them into doing it. Maybe change will come, maybe.
Blog Platform Blocking
Every blogging platform should have a blocking feature as to protect people from unnecessary harassment and hate. Too many folks out there are ridiculed and bullied for no reason at all. Protecting one’s heart and soul online is imperative these days. We can’t take any chances especially with younger folks who are the most vulnerable. One day I hope WordPress will have such a feature. We cannot take any chances in the world in which we live.
Just so you know…
I am a middle-aged dork who seeks to bridge generations and to relate to others. People are people when it comes down to it and we all can gain from the experiences of younger and older folks. I believe in treating a 20 year old and a 70 year old the same and that is with respect, dignity and a little bit of love. One thing I have learned from blogging is that we are more alike than different and that our age is nothing but a number. Of course we should always keep things on the up and up in this crazy world we live in.
