Don't you agree that it would be great if Blogger had this private posting option that only CERTAIN people can access with a password? I had a wordpress account earlier until the buggers there booted me out because some A**hole flagged one of my post as being politically laced....which it wasn't! Wordpress had such an option whereby you can mark the post as private and give it a password. If friends or family members wanted to access the private posts, they can email you for the password and you can pick and choose the 'applicants' lah... :-)
But Blogger doesn't have...which is strange since it's bigger and supposedly better than wordpress. In all honesty, I think wordpress is a whole world better than blogger and I have no idea as to why people flog to blogger and not wordpress.
wordpress is also far more flexible in that sense...that you can tweak the blog to the extent that it looks and feels completely like a website. You can have individual 'contact', 'about', 'services' page and all that which is something you cannot find in blogger.
Yo, you guys back in blogger, can you do something about this?
But in all fairness, wordpress' free service does not allow people to post scripts and stuff, especially third-party scripts and such, into the pages....which truly sucks too.
Back to the private post thing, I really wish blogger would do something about it so that bloggers can actually dry their dirty laundry out on the web selectively.
I was kind of a little sad when I read the news about this - there will be no live-in Indonesian maids in Malaysia anymore . There are pros and cons to having a live-in maid, as with everything else, but for us, we enjoyed more pros than cons. Back then, when my kids were little, we brought in a family of maids to help with...well, just about everything, and we were like two families merged into one. They ate what we ate, we sleep, they sleep, we shop, they shop, they joke, we laugh, we joke, they laugh...for me, the maid I hired was more like a sister and side-kick to me. For that few years, I was dependent on her to mind-read my schedule and when I need or don't need help. She picked things up quickly and we ended up having lots of moments whereby we were in sync. Today, two of them are on my Facebook and we were gleefully chatting over Facebook Messenger since they've just discovered the wonders of the Internet and Social Media. Since we were more like partners in crim...

mumsgather, Ha ha ha ha, erm...but ah....that's not what I am looking for. I don't want to block the whole blog, I want to blog particular posts only mah.... :-)
And to all other mothers out there, Happy Mother's Day....
Wordpress OTOH, is pretty daunting at first. I guess with flexibility and features comes complexity.
Nothing beats a privately hosted Wordpress though. You'd have to manage upgrades but in return you get the freedom to blog about anything and everything plus the ability to use the freely available skins/scripts is uber cool :)
Which, thanks to you, I found Bernie and being the lovely techie that he is, he said OK to help with my WORDPRESS site, www.contentmagician.com!
