Blogs and blogging for beginners
Certainly 10 years ago we had 12,000 books listed on the internet and people asking me what the internet was, never came as a surprise.
Anyway it occurred to me that I ought to put simple instructions on how to post linked to the sidebar.
If any of you notice anything important I have missed please let me know.

Comments, since I started writing this blog in 2007 the way the internet works has changed a lot, comments and dialogue here were once viable in an open and anonymous sense. Now if you comment here I will only allow the comment if it seems to make sense and be related to what the post is about. I link the majority of my posts to the main local Facebook groups and to my Facebook account, “Michael Child” I guess the main Ramsgate Facebook group is We Love Ramsgate. For the most part the comments and dialogue related to the posts here goes on there. As for the rest of it, well this blog handles images better than Facebook, which is why I don’t post directly to my Facebook account, although if I take a lot of photos I am so lazy that I paste them directly from my camera card to my bookshop website and put a link on this blog.
Hello Micheal,
ReplyDeleteI had to pop over after reading the comment you left on my post.
I also live in the UK and am si surprised how few people over here know what "blogging" is. Even my sister (a MySpace/Facebook fanatic) still doesn't understand why I spend such long hours online ;)
Your idea of writing about blogs and posting for beginners is a great idea! I hope this will be successful for you.
Best wishes and thanks for stopping by at Blogger Buster :)

thanks Amanda but did I get it right
ReplyDeletePeter glad you like the explanation I am going to do some sort of comprehensive thing about blogs on my traditional websites, when I get around to it.
ReplyDeleteAs for explaining the shirt my mother bought it for me, must be at least 25 years ago, perhaps it was an act of maternal piety one can never tell with mothers, because of Oedipus.
Cor dear Michael, does that shirt have a volume control knob?
ReplyDeleteNeeds turning down mate!
Nick, Whits
Nick I really thought it was quite tame, by the way I did email KM Extra again as you suggested but elicited no reply, perhaps my rather abrasive sense of humour is just too much for them. If you send me your email address I will copy it to you.
