We Created a Posterous Blog a While Ago

  • Jan 4, 2009
  • 1 comment

Created a Blog at http://grazing.posterous.com/ just to see what it had to offer. Couldn't use the editor and gave up. After getting a prodding email from the developer, we went back to find they seems to have lined up the ducks in the proper order.

Now I have a Blog where I can upload YouTube embedded Blog entries via email. It as too simple.

We like simple.

Another attempt at Blogger entry

  • Jan 2, 2009
  • Post a comment

Have been trying to get the Blog-It feature linked to Friend Feed to post a Blog entry here at Belltower News with no success. I am sure it is because I have yet upgraded to the templates added after Google took over.

Tried another tweak. If this doesn't work, blogging will get another blow over the convenience of online social commenting.-30-

Off-line editor for VOX?

  • Aug 2, 2008
  • Post a comment

This is a first blog entry using the new off-line editor Zoundry Raven. In the set up, it seemed to bring the settings for Trounce Ally in the VOX server with no problem. Considering the difficulty we have had getting a VOX based blog working in an off-line editor we will be very surprised if this works.

No bells and whistles with this entry, with the exception of the -30- HTML code.

QotD: The Best Scent

  • Feb 10, 2008

What is your favorite scent or smell and why? 
Submitted by Nebraska Plates.

Vanilla.  Most scents cause me to reel in response. Vanilla draws me to it.  Simple as that.

Still Waiting For Live Writer

  • Feb 10, 2008
  • Post a comment

Live Writer is so completely easy to use, we have adopted it for most of the Famous Grazing Blogs.

However, Vox doesn't support it, or visa versa. I don't care which isn't working on it. When we did
a Google Search looking for a solution we were very surprised that all and sundry said it just won't
work. Nothing in the computer world "Just Won't Work"!!

We are stubborn. We will keep looking around for ways to get Live Writer and Vox to work. For now,
it's back to Zoundry!

Chewing Gum and Soccer

  • Feb 10, 2008
  • Post a comment

   

It was in something I read on the Internet that said chewing gum made you smarter.  I am not so sure about that.  I rarely chew gum but a piece was offered to me during Coffee Hour this morning and impulsively I took it.  Normally, when people offer gum or a mint at a social gathering it means your breath might be on the brink of acting as a capable paint stripper.

But, as I am still chewing the gum hours later, I believe it has removed my ability to write at all.  Or it could be because of how little I know about Association Football? 

I do know that Manchester City has defeated Manchester United in a soccer game in the not too distant past.  I do know that is like the New Jersey Giants defeating the New England Patriots.  I do know that my friend, a new citizen of these United States, is a die hard Man City fan. 

That's all I need to know to be able to say: Congratulations Man City!!!
