Do you want to know what I just did? I got so mad at Blogger I actually growled, closed my eyes and scrunched up my fists and shook them. (Not a normal Barbara reaction to rage.) This new Beta version is absolute garbage. I wouldn't have downloaded it if they would have told me before that I wouldn't be able to comment on blogs unless they had the Beta version too! I had to create a whole damn new account and that wouldn't publish. I had all sorts of words coming from my mouth. Let's just say it is a good thing the kids are asleep.

Have you ever had a dream that you were dreaming and in the dream you were trying to wake up from the dream? Yeah. I know. It was weird.

Hi Barb, I totaly hate the new beta also! I have found that if I sign in under OTHER in the comments, then I am able to post comments.
well it appears i'm having problems to even post a comment too. Curse you Beta Blogger!!
I think everyone hates the beta version. Actually, I can't think of anyone who switched that likes it!

:o) joanna
Grrr, I posted a comment and it disappeared! I have a love/hate relationship with blogger and with computers in general.
I'm glad I'm such a procrastinator. I had planned on switching over to beta, but I think I'll just stay put!
About the dream thing, it's a little early in the day for me to tackle that one;)
When I was having trouble with Wordpress I created a Blogger Beta account.
I thought it was good. And easy to use.
But...I had to create another Blogger account to comment on non beta blogs.
Grrrrr, I said.
But then I went back to Wordpress and it worked for me again and so I forgot about the Blogger Beta blog. And use my other Blogger account to comment on blogs that don't have "Other" comments enabled. Like PBS's blog for example.
So, that's my story in all it's exciting details.
And I can't recall ever dreaming I was dreaming..
Barbara, this new beta thingy has indeed been a real challenge on my superior skills in patience and tolerance," too.
I've lost the ability to sign into the blog you have in your side bar, Barb. "One-Ripe-Tomato" has changed because the URL "1ripetomato" is considered a sub-domain with beta and if I only knew what I know now, I prolly would have still been naive enough to sign up with beta. :D I can still post to it yet I'm unable to do much else with it, i.e. like get into the template. Nothing major, 'eh? Yeah right.
Pfffffffffft!
I'm registered with Technorati. It is through Technorati that we can ping our blocks when updated although its not recognizing Maryannaville and hasn't since I updated to beta. Ofcourse, I've contacted them and sure nuff, they still haven't returned the courtesy. They rate another, Pfffffft, from me.
Gratefully, Maryannaville is and continues to be updated via Google because I created a site map with them. But Technorati can flat kiss my grits!
ps-lessons in patience and tolerance.
