Greetings again everyone, 2 entries in one day – although I must have my timezone set wrong cos the system thinks its 2 days, but anyway… So, after a Reader Comment that talked about not being happy for a Plus account holder to not be able to add links in entries, it struck…
In order to allow new users to sign up again, I have had to make a slight change, which possibly won't be very popular but hopefully won't stay in place for long – at least for regular users. To re-cap, the reason new users were unable to sign up was because a high proportion of…

For some time now people have been struggling with inputing their entries onto DD – at least it seems that those who were using the HTML editor and IE8 were having issues.

These diaries sign up for the express purpose of posting links to other sites, sometimes with various irrelevant keywords. To be honest, I don’t get it. The Google ranking they’ll achieve as a result of being on here with…
I’m just writing to let you know that we’re OK – in case anyone who knows us reads here. We still have a house, by the Grace of God. I can’t pretend to understand His plan, but for some reason He spared our house while others nearby burned to the ground. We’re running on generator…
SBCGlobal users might wish to contact them and ask them why they continually reject e-mails from us. I have checked with the blacklists and we are NOT on the lists that SBCGlobal continually state we are. The net result is, you cannot use an SBCGlobal e-mail address if you wish e-mail to be delivered from…
