I see that Jim of Starcross has,albeit reluctantly, returned to Blogger, having switched to Wordpress in protest at Google's tax practices. I sympathise with both actions. Whatever the faults of Google and Amazon - and I am wholeheartedly signed up to the view that in some respects they are the work of the devil - I not only use them, but also respect them, for one overriding quality that their competitors somehow lack: they make things easy. I don't buy from Amazon to save money; I do it to save hassle. And to my mind, that is a key and very significant part of providing a good service - which should be recognised and supported whatever their other faults.

Although I have to say (in a comment because I can't edit posts on the iPad) that Blogger is trying my patience somewhat at present - whenever I open a Blogger blog on the iPad now it defaults to the mobile version, hich I donn't want; I wantt the web version. Any way of overrcoming this that anyone knows of, or is it just the price you pay for being poncey enough to own an iPad?
ReplyDeleteI console myself my saying that at least we don't pay Google anything for the use of Blogger
ReplyDeleteThat should be "by saying", obviously (and why can't Blogger introduce an editing facility for comments! :-)
ReplyDeleteOh, any Sarah: Can you change your link to my blog, please. (I'll shut up now).
ReplyDeleteoh yes, but I was commendably quick to change it in the first place wasn't I? It may have to wait until I'm on a proper computer though.
ReplyDeleteHi Sarah,
ReplyDeleteSeems the only way is to use the Atomic web browser for the Ipad
http://atomicwebbrowser.com/
Free or 69p for the tabbed version? You can set the browser to be desktop safari which then opens all web pages in their desktop view. I have downloaded the free version and am giving it a go.
Take care
