It's either fury or tears, no middle ground.sarah toahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12412812914705725798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8649507973626411498.post-74023916161984248092014-10-22T11:18:42.087+08:002014-10-22T11:18:42.087+08:00So, what is your "other browser" Sarah, ...So, what is your "other browser" Sarah, and what are you using now? Please tell me that the answer to neither question is "Internet Explorer".<br /><br /><i>Why do they have to own the whole world? If its easy Imight just jumpto Wordpress.</i><br /><br />If you were a huge multi-national corporation, wouldn't you want to own the whole world? As far as I can see, Google is another good example of what happens when you let a company use its success in one area of the market to leverage other areas. Like with Woolies and Westfarmers branching out and colonising every facet of retail. The longer this goes on, and the more consolidated things get, the less "fixable" I think it is through "consumer activism" and the like. It'll be interesting to see how diverse the landscape is in twenty years, no? <br /><br />At the moment, you can export your blog from Blogger and import it into WordPress, but as Sarah indicated, it won't move your pictures, videos, or any other embedded content. I don't think you can do much with your G+ stuff, though I might be wrong.<br /><br />***<br /><br /><i>It's an honest transaction</i><br /><br />I suppose. On one of my early trips to Brisbane, I put money in the tin of a bloke who was flailing about in a wheelchair, making grunting noises. Later that evening, I saw him pushing his wheelchair and casually chatting with a woman, probably on their way home for tea. I didn't feel quite so at peace about that one at the time. I guess it's not exactly the same thing though, is it? Or is it? <br /><br />***<br /><br /><i>Getting hit hard on the head brings up all kinds of history with me.</i><br /><br />That sounds pretty nasty. I have my own history, but my gut reaction tends to be blind fury, and I just want to hit back. I guess it's a bit pointless trying to square off with a bloody sailboat though.Alexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06673899518142203994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8649507973626411498.post-86436110583717054542014-10-21T18:58:27.176+08:002014-10-21T18:58:27.176+08:00Also ... on the right hand side of the road are th...Also ... on the right hand side of the road are the grannies I was writing about.sarah toahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12412812914705725798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8649507973626411498.post-25372872614508774842014-10-21T18:47:06.766+08:002014-10-21T18:47:06.766+08:00I guess you could just cut and past all of your te...I guess you could just cut and past all of your text into another blog Ciaran, though you do have a pretty impressive body of work going on.
