I cannot express in words how much I detest what Xanga has done to change how we update the “look and feel” of our Xanga sites. I’m neither stupid or computer-illiterate, but the entire ‘themes’ interface is a huge pain in the butt. I don’t find it in the least intuitive or self-explanatory, nor do I find any real help or instructions about it anywhere.

And to top it off, it’s virtually impossible to find a ‘contact us’ sort of place where we can either complain or protest or make suggestions for improvement. I know I’ve found such a link in the past, but it’s a long tedious process to find it, if or when I find it at all, which I couldn’t today.

It is partly because of these detestable changes that I stopped using Xanga recently. But it was also partly because I’d just run out of things to blog about and the motivation to write at all. But I think I’ve regained a little bit of that now, so we’ll see if I can keep up the momentum to blog weekly.

If I’m not here, you can find me at my personal website, which I’ll now be updating again since spring has sprung and there are lots of pictures to be taken.
