How stupid that it will report an error before I've had a chance to finish what I am doing.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18354974465136846413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19798349.post-41135886467413289472009-10-07T14:39:16.335+00:002009-10-07T14:39:16.335+00:00(@Andrew: but if I do ever contemplate shifting pl...(@Andrew: but if I do ever contemplate shifting platform, I'll give you first option on the interview....)Glyn Moodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04436885795882611585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19798349.post-70187241095122473142009-10-07T14:37:47.729+00:002009-10-07T14:37:47.729+00:00@Andrew: yes!

(e.g., would hosting at WordPress.com fit your definition?)<br />- should you keep on blogging? Perhaps blogging per se is so last Thursday, and twitbook and facer are where it's at these days<br /><br />If you'd be interested in addressing some of these issues in the context of voice or email interviews, please consider granting such an interview to changingway.org <br /><br />Best,<br />AndrewAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19798349.post-83779089343904576102009-10-06T18:02:10.511+00:002009-10-06T18:02:10.511+00:00@changingway: yeah, but you told me *ages* ago, so...@changingway: yeah, but you told me *ages* ago, so it doesn't count...Glyn Moodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04436885795882611585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19798349.post-87926174317285880552009-10-06T18:02:09.146+00:002009-10-06T18:02:09.146+00:00@changingway: yeah, but you told me *ages* ago, so...@changingway: yeah, but you told me *ages* ago, so it doesn't count...Glyn Moodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04436885795882611585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19798349.post-86286798588061390452009-10-06T16:57:55.899+00:002009-10-06T16:57:55.899+00:00I won't say I told you so, partly because I al...I won't say I told you so, partly because I already did, and partly because others have beaten me to it this time.<br /><br />Now, off to talk to the environmental speaker who uses a podium made of crushed asbestos and baby seal bones...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19798349.post-48755416645061503682009-10-06T12:40:45.998+00:002009-10-06T12:40:45.998+00:00Yes, I know that Blogger is deeply flawed, and tha...Yes, I know that Blogger is deeply flawed, and that there are better solutions...I suppose I consider it a useful penitential experience...Glyn Moodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04436885795882611585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19798349.post-41020667955579331212009-10-06T12:30:11.731+00:002009-10-06T12:30:11.731+00:00I opened this from my RSS reader to come suggest W...I opened this from my RSS reader to come suggest Wordpress but I see someone has beat me to the punch.
