Reasons I hate Blogigo

by: Sassy1

Because it eats my entries.

ALL THE FREAKING TIME.

 Happy

Because sometimes it just wont let me log in.

LIKE WHEN I REALLY WANT TO BLOG.

 Happy

Because it takes forever to load up on my computer.

BECAUSE ITS A CRAPPY SYSTEM.

 Happy

And because half the menu options are in another language.

THAT I DONT SPEAK.

 Happy

 Blogigo, I hate you. If I wasn't such a lazy bint, I'd move. I would. I might. Maybe. New Year, New Blog? What say you?

 

In other news:

So sorry that you don't get to read the huge and entertaining blog post I just wrote, because Blogigo just ate it, and its midnight, and I'm tired, and I've already SAID everything that I wanted to say, so I don't really feel like retyping it!

Here is a short synopsis of my last eaten post:

I have to write a Christmas card to BB, and I'm struggling. Here are some witty and clever examples of cards I might send: Oh no, frigging blogigo ate them.

Happy

I got a new job. Here are some potential disasters that may befall me on my first shift: Oh no! Blogigo frigging ATE THEM.

Happy

I have a newly discovered and happiness enducing attachment to period drama. I have seen both Becoming Jane and Copying Beethoven this week, and they were both interesting, engaging and made me feel like me. Which is a nice way to feel. AND YOU CAN'T TAKE THAT AWAY FROM ME BLOGIGO! HA!

 Happy(Looks like Blogigo and I are both happy about that one)

Here endeth the rant.

Goodnight, farewell, and a sweet Mr. Darcy-esque moment to you all, accompanied by the Grosse Fugue... just because it makes for an interesting juxtaposition.

And I am probably the only one who gets that, and the nerdy little sprite that is my spirit is doing a dance of happiness, so all is well HappyExcept at Blogigo, where suckiness still reigns supreme.

I kept a blog there for work for a very short time, before moving myself elsewhere - it annoyed me that each time I wanted to go to my blog, I had to log in through the central blogger homepage. Maybe I just didn't know my way around particularly well. And I'm really not interested in having to set up all the backgrounds and layout - I don't have those sorts of skills (your new page looks amazing by the way!).

    I'm such a negative nora today!

    I do like blogging here really - and I'm a bit attached to my web address and stuff too. Its just sometimes the unreliability of it gets me down. Especially when I've just written a novel and it gets eaten!

    I'll have to have more of a think about it - but thanks for the advice Sponky dearest.

  4. quoteJobe wrote at Dec 14, 2007 at 12:35 o\clock:Oh and PS, I had the same problem for a while ago because my computer would freeze or my net would do something stupid so what I do (out of habit) is type the whole thing up in Word or something like that, save as I go, then just copy and paste across.

    Nothing lost, everything gained!

Main drawbacks with the move is that (thanks to Blogigo's destroyed feeds) we can't copy across all our posts and comments automatically. We can copy the old posts by hand but the comments are gone...

    It's worth it though, and it's good to look through the old stuff; I've deleted much that I don't want up any more.

    There's a short 'goodbye' post on my Blogigo blog with the links: (1) to my WordPress blog; (2) to my Emergency Blogspot... I wrote a post at (2) comparing Blogigo and WordPress: 'Looking In and Looking Back'.

    You're welcome to visit.

    Best wishes whatever you decide to do, and I hope you enjoy Christmas despite all the setbacks.
