Some of the threads are as follows:
- What'
s with this new version of blogger? Every time I log in I keep being enticed to switch to an upgrade. Is it not enough that I bare my meager thoughts to the digital world, for all to read, without having these e-sirens enticing me to upgrade them somehow? Does this somehow infer, that my old, un-upgraded blog-thoughts are somehow inferior? Why do I need to set up a Google account to legitimise the airing of my dirty, digital laundry? I wonder if there are any of 'my readers' who have tried this new upgraded version? Can anyone provide comments or feedback? They'd be welcome. Does this Google account replace my Blogger account? And finally, why can't I just read the dang instructions, where these would all likely be answered? - As I alluded to earlier - today is a much anticipated day in my little world - the return to the classroom. While I have technically been pursuing academia consistently, without significant break, since September '05 most of it has been in the practical arena since this past April. Today, for the first time since April, I will return to the classroom.
For those who have been asking - I have 7 credits left, which I expect to finish by Christmas '07. This means I will be part time, for the rest of my programme. Largely, this is because I haven't been taking a full course load of 5 credits per semester, but just maintaining a full time status with 4 credits per semester. With doing daddy daycare 4 credits a semester was quite sufficient. This is the first time I won't be studying AND taking care of our daughter, so I am going to try to set two days aside, per week, to spend on campus studying. This also means that I'm looking for part time employment, or possibly even full time employment that would offer flexible hours, and we'll see how this meshes with my study plans.

I caved in to the repeated 'Switch to the new Blogger!' propaganda and as far as I can tell, the only difference is that my posts post much faster, and whenever I want to write something (either on my own blog or on someone elses) I have to go through the annoying step of going through my so-called Google account. I think, however, there are new 'bells and whistles' to add to your blog, but I'm not brave enough to try them since it erases your old template first. I like my old template the way it is, thank you very much!
I almost caved, the other day, but held firm. I think I'm going to see how long I can hold out before the blogger 'thought police' enforce the upgrade.
By the way - an awfully speedy reply from Deaner - aren't you supposed to be off forming young minds some place?
