Otter on the Move

Jul. 18th, 2014 at 11:52 AM

Hi y'all I have simply too many blogs going. I know many of you loathe Face Book and I'm not happy with some things about it myself. So I'm leaving LJ and will be posting the same sorts of things (and hopefully more often) on my website's blog. Hope to see you there!

Aww, sad to see you go - it was so convenient here, seeing your new posts automatically appear on my flist. If your web designer could set up a button to get notifications when you post something new on your blog, that would be great. Thank you. :) Oh and I really like the new look of your site!

Hi ourdramaqueen,

While waiting for that, you can still get notified of a new post with the RSS feed, which you can get by simply replacing /blog/ by /feed/ in the address Lynn gave in the post above.

If you have a netvibes-like homepage, you can create your own widget and there you have it: notification for every new post!

Thanks. I'm not sure what you mean by "a netvibes-like homepage" - here on LJ? I'll see if I can figure it out, if not I'll just have to wait until we got a follow button. :)

Re: Notifications

Yeah, sorry, I was talking about the homepage of your browser. Netvibes is my browser homepage and you can follow the RSS feeds of all the things you're interested in, in the form of widgets that display the latest posts.
It doesn't have to be your homepage, by the way. It can be just another web page that you visit every so often to check for updates on everything you like at the same time.)

Hee, no worries. :)

Meanwhile, I remembered that you can add RSS feeds to your LJ flist, so I went ahead and did that. Though I don't think my existing ones have been working recently... I'll have to wait and see, I guess!

Do you mind letting me know how to do that? I would love to add a feed but dont see an obvious way how to do that. The one you were chatting with is above my techy level, so hopefully I'll understand your method. Thanks tons!

I'll be sad not seeing your posts on my LJ friends page anymore. :( Was super convenient, too, but you do what you gotta do!

Aww, heck! Well, I'll definitely bookmark your new blog. Glad to see you'll still have a web presence (I'm one of those who refuses to get a facebook account).

That's sad.... This is the only online blogging site that I visit with any regularity. I had fun while it lasted. Just read all books in the nightrunner series again. It was just as good the second time. I don't know if it makes sense to call a fantasy series life altering, but..well somehow it felt that way. Take care,

Have fun! :)
There's only one thing ... and I hope I'm not alone in this:
The font for the titles are hard for me to read. /: All curvy fonts are. I know this is supposed to look writer-ly and elegant but ... *squints* (I'm short-sighted, btw.)

Anyway, formatting freak - out.

I don't know if there's any way you'll see this, but your blog's domain appears to have expired and been taken over by a spammer. The only posts are about pills to help with snoring and sex. Seeing as this is the first hit when your name gets googled, you might want to take the link off your LJ/Facebook/etc.

Hope you're doing well! :)
