Sorry this blog went a bit wrong and the previous post
appeared twice while the feeds on the other local blogs read test post, I think
I pushed blogger to the limit with a mixture of posting the gcse results tables
and trying to persuade the blogger editor that my mobile phone was actually an
ordinary computer and not a phone at all.
Anyway I think I have sorted things out now but have to put
some sort of post up to see if it is all working ok. I certainly had a bit of a
learning curve there in terms of putting tables into blogger.
I guess I can only thank the Thanet secondary schools for
improving my computing skills, if you ever have occasion to put Excel tables
into blogger you need to paste them into Word first and then copy them from
Word into the blogger editor.
If you want to con the blogger editor that your Android
smartphone is actually an ordinary computer so you paste into the blogger
editor and import photos from your Picasa account into your posts then Chrome
is the best browser.
You can link the whole thing up by signing up to
Google plus and having the Google Plus app on your phone, this means that when
your phone gets a wifi connection it automatically uploads the high definition
photos you have taken with your phone to your Picasa account.
All this probably sounds like gibberish to most people but
means that I can now do complex blog posts with fully expandable images and
text with the spelling checked albeit by an American very quickly from my
phone.
Apologies for what is a test post containing the sort
of technical information that most people don’t want to know about.
Well it seems to have worked, there is now more
than one post on this page and the blog is feeding this post to the other
blogs. If there is a moral then I guess it's don't make your blog learn tables.

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.
