Blogger IS Unusable

This Blog is dead, except when I post a link to the new one. (Tumblr or WorldPress).  Sorry, the Google ruined this service, utterly.

Watch for the last post (it will still stay free or I will stop all together).

Suspending This Blog

I have a few days off, so I will not even be thinking of posting anything till next week.

 If I try the posting interface then, and Google/Blogger has not fixed the nearly useless editing interface, this blog may disappear.

If you fear that happening, please leave a comment below, telling Google/Blogger to fix their damn web site, and stop trying to crunch all the data in every post, as it happens. It is maddening what they did to up who use this service.

If I move to WorldPress, I will post a link. As my last entry. Have a nice weekend all.

Mac Virus Steals From Google

I like that Macs are getting virus' again.  And that someone is earning about $10,000 a day from Google for it.

Google Says "You Have No Opt-Out Option"

Well, this is going to kill my Google+ account for sure. Probably my Youtube channel too. Maybe this ver blog; Google is too damn BIG!

Google Street View Spies!!

Funny, considering, the car keeps moving, the most it could log, it the fact that an open wireless Internet connection exists. I expect the thought was; Google could map open Wi-Fi at coffee houses?

The fact that they wound up identifying personal (not private) wi-fi areas is not Google's fault. I hate defending the much overgrown Google.

They were [probably] just trying to provide a valid customer service, but to date, I have not heard them admit it. I expect it breaks some law, somewhere.

The FACT is, anyone with an unsecured wireless network is wide open to anyone in the vicinity connecting and riding on their Internet connection. A passing car is the least of their worries, and they should be thankful that this has been brought to their attention.

I would LOVE to be at a Congressional Hearing on this, on the record..

NewsCorp Leans Towards BING?

It's funny how Rupert is so very scared of Google, he is too old to understand that they increase traffic at his web sites. Poor old guy. I guess the is still thinking about it.

What I haven't heard anyone talk about, is how this (if it happens) will pit the conservative online media (BING) against the liberal (Google). I don't thing Microsoft wants to be branded as the "right wing search engine"? At least I don't think so. Nor do I think Google would want to be left wing. I am watching this one like a hawk.

I expect MS will say no, and Rupert will have to go think some more, which will just make him angrier.
