Is this the last day to blog?

 Then there is the demise of Blogger.

Let's think seriously of options if and when it is no longer updated, when more and more glitches happen.

As Tom says, "You get what you pay for."

Though I answered "The best things in life are free."

The truth of the matter is that Google is focused elsewhere. The Blogger program is kept alive by mostly seniors, according to my grandchildren who twitter or instagram...they don't even FaceBook any more.

So here this 84 year old sits wondering how the 80 some odd (no you're not odd, just the number) bloggers that I follow will continue without my  knowing what's going on in their lives.

Not to mention, receiving no more comments because that function, as well as that of posting photos, has already been challenged in the last month. Before that I already lost the lists of blogs I was following, where nobody's latest blog is listed. For today there's still a list, but with an old blog title. And some of the blogs on that list seem to get left off entirely.

--------------

I'm now going to hopefully follow your blog posts with the aid of feedly DOT com. I will not be posting here on this "When I Was 69" blog for now. Look for me almost daily on Life in Durango.

So here are some of the blogs I enjoy reading...

Of course the links are scrambled with the "/feeds/posts/default" but the links work when that part is left off!
