It could be that it wasn't easily available for linux. Or it could have been that it would have been difficult to post remotely -- i.e., from a machine other than my server. I'm not thrilled using google's blogger, but so far it's been ok. It was quite easy to set up, and I'm not really posting anything that I'd be terribly upset if it disappeared if google suddenly turned (more?) evil.<BR/><BR/>Santa Barbara fog sounds kinda nice. I liked the fog in Northern California. But perhaps this is because I often encountered coastal fog only in briefly on trips in the summer to escape the heat and dryness of the Central Valley.Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17562482290653748337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19319617.post-1147772605994956792006-05-16T05:43:00.000-04:002006-05-16T05:43:00.000-04:00well, i for one miss springtime in Bar Harbor. th...well, i for one miss springtime in Bar Harbor. the beauty of the lush green foliage and the blooming flowers was heightened by the excitement engendered by the warming weather (and its promise of fun, comfortable outdoor recreation), the conclusion of Spring term, and the onrush of summer.<BR/><BR/>ah, nostalgia. especially potent during Santa Barbara's depressing attempts at a season change-- three weeks straight of fog. arg.<BR/><BR/>well, here's to your fine new(ish) blog enhancing community and social interconnectivity in addition to being just an outlet for procrastination. i have to say i'm rather surprised youre using google's proprietary and as far as i know unarchivable platform rather than WordPress, which i would expect to be a more natural fit for you. i'm trying to figure out WordPress for my own site but its kind of hard-- cake for someone with their own webserver though.<BR/><BR/>anyways, thanks for the enjoyable and evocative content, and thanks for that cool post of your academic journal articles abstract. that was informative. <BR/>(now get back to work. ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19319617.post-1147620783637965592006-05-14T11:33:00.000-04:002006-05-14T11:33:00.000-04:00Interesting Blog Sir!Interesting Blog Sir!ICPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03172950900495186547noreply@blogger.com
