A LITTLE HELP FOR MY FRIENDS — by Steve Nadis
They’re running Google ads on my blog, which has happened without any authorization from me; I guess that’s how blog.com subsidizes this whole enterprise. The ads tend to be local (Cambridgey things) and the last couple have related to friends of mine: One was for a realtor I’ve known for a long time; he showed my wife and I homes years ago before he dropped us. I also used to see him at the Cambridge Y, which he only went to because he thought he was unlikely to run into clients who would pester him with real estate questions. (He had that problem at cushier clubs like Wellbridge.) The other ad was for a prominent high-tech research center where another friend of mine works. I guess I’m helping out in ways that, until recently, I didn’t even know about.
Do I want pizza or sushi? I didn’t think I was hungry. The power of suggestion…
Why not get both? That way you’ll help out more of my friends…
I have the same problem. Today blog.com presented me with a huge problem. My username which has worked for months is no longer valid. Oh, and I cannot indent pargraphs, which is no longer a problem as I can’t log on. New and improved platform, you bet!
I have the same problem. More than that, blog.com is no longer recognizing my username, the one that has used for months. New and improved platform, you bet!
Oh crudness! First I couldn’t submit a comment. Now, I sent two and I only have enough sensible words for one.
I feel your pain, PDL. I feel your pain. And I don’t mind the repetition, as it only serves to emphasize your point. I’ve gone through all those problems that you cite, but they magically went away; I hope that yours do too. Dreams can come true in the blogosphere (if not in the biosphere).
