Not so much because I don't like to write. But I'm tired of having my posts disappear when I hit "save". Or when I post a picture into the post. Something is amiss according to my website host, Typepad.
They told me it's because I'm using Internet Explorer 9. That could have been a credible reason if not for the fact I've been using that for quite some time. Months. So why all of a sudden does it mess up?
They suggest I go to Firefox as a browser. I know nothing about Firefox. I do know that some of these search engines are trying to monopolize the world. Like Google is the biggest. And Bing wants to be a top dog.
Somehow I think they are all conspiring to get the business for their particular group. And I just wonder if the reason folks have trouble with Facebook is because of the browser, too. Last week I couldn't get onto Facebook for days. Thought it was my computer and discovered it wasn't when others started having a similar cloud of white cover their screens.
Sabotage. Conspiracy. Stolen words--ripped from the monitor right before my eyes. My brain is not as young as it use to be. When I write something, and it's put on the page, my brain deletes it. Bob, my dear hubby, says that's a good thing. Makes room for more new stuff. Only problem is, if the website keeps gobbling up my gook, what reason is there to write it?
So I'm thinking I am the only one having this problem and I oughta quick whining and stop being a baby and acting like an old woman, and figure it out. So I go to the "Help" section of Typepad, and there's a bevy of folks who were closed down in "mid save", and when uploading photos, and changing things. They were reporting the 502 Error messages they were getting. Bad Connection messages. eeeeh...heebie jeebies.
H E L P!
Hey, all you techie folks out there: If I switch to Firefox to accomodate Typepad, will that mean I have to change all my Feedburner settings and the links that other directories have so kindly placed in their blogsites and aggregators? Anyone know if this is really worth the trouble? Firefox...sounds like a sneaky creature that's just gonna burn up my words instead of eating them. What say ye?
