It’s a little nuts, really. <\/p>\n
I do software support for a living. You know what I dislike more than just about anything in my personal life? Having to fuck around with software. You’d think I would like it, but you would be incorrect. I enjoy it at work, where I am fairly well remunerated for doing it. Once I get home, I just want to write. Use a web browser to Google things. My needs are simple. <\/p>\n
It’s the same reason I switched from PC to Mac when I did PC support all day. After work, I didn’t want to screw around with my OS. I just wanted to come home from fixing PCs and have my own computer work without any work being done to it. Macs just work for the most part. <\/p>\n
Now I am to a point where I almost don’t use a computer at all. No, I am not a Luddite. That’s cute. I am just as connected as ever, possibly even more so, but with an iPad and iPhone. My own magical Star Trek communicators. <\/p>\n
They are pretty reliable except that apps…well…the developers update them, and then your perfect little app gets glitches. Your blog can’t get scheduled correctly. Facebook won’t let things show up on your timeline. You can’t change your password from within an app. The iOS devices themselves are pretty reliable. Apps depend on the developer, of course. <\/p>\n
So then I find myself screwing around trying to find workarounds. Know what? I would rather be drinking a cocktail on the patio. So, I take my device outside and do my testing there, but still. I’m not writing. I’m not chatting with anyone. I’m working. Bleah. <\/p>\n
So that is my 300 word essay on why my blog will be boring in the morning. It’s because either Facebook or WordPress did “something” and broke my ability to post a link from my blog to Facebook that would work for all devices. So I’m trying Blogpress. We’ll see how it goes. <\/p>\n
I’m not afraid to go back to the WordPress client, so don’t piss me off. I’m looking at you, Blogpress and Blogsy. <\/p>\n
