Dammit

Great. I just lost a draft I'd been working on for 40 minutes. Fuck you Blogger. I'll try again tonight.

You totally need to type your posts into something that auto saves as yhou go along. Somthing like ms word or even an outgoing mail in outlook. Both of those auto save and do spell checking, somehting I can't live without.

I've learnt from sorry experience loosing hour long posts to stupid power failures in Cape Town. Stupid power! So I sypathise, big time!

i'm sure blogger provides an add-on to word so you can blog in word (and fake out the boss who thinks you're doing actual work) and then click a button to post to blogger...

i'm not 100% sure as i blog naked, unfettered by excess code and protection.
and i mean "blogging naked" as in "jacking in naked" and not sitting in a lab full of people without my pants!

Oh no. What a tragedy.

schpat: the problem with MS Word etc is their bullshit html messes with the formatting

zenstar: tell the truth, you blog naked as in no pants. And what was that line about jackin' it?

Michelle: thanks for the empathy. I will survive.

pantsless 'o clock is strictly reserved for irc...
HOW BIG ARE YOUR BOOBS?
and "jacking in" is completely different to jacking off.
you can do both at the same time, well.. technically you can't do one of them yet.
but if you could you could do both at the same time and probably would if you were as much a technophile as i (and i'm not talking music here. how can such a shite music genre steal such a decent name?)

Mr Angry said...

Well, you can see how I made the mistake ;)

Mmmm... I'm one of those guys who drinks and blogs. I think this has happened to me before, but it's possible that I passed out before hitting the "publish blog" button. These days I 'mumble' onto a simple text document (avoiding Word's html hassles, and the loss of my gems of wisdom) and just copy it to Blogger when I'm done. Once you know a bit of html it's really quick and simple...
