I've just spent the past hour and a half catching up with blogs, something I had not gotten round to this month. In fact, since Palm Sunday (March 27th). Quite a few people have been saying on Facebook and their journals that they miss J-land. The good ole days of AOL, alerts (working or not), the wee chatroom we had for about 10 months and all that sort of jazz. I've never really taken to Blogger, but it's what we have, so that's it.
Funny you mention AOL. I was just thinking how much fun we had when had the chat room for AOL Journals open. I miss that. I also miss the spirit we had in JLand - it is so different here on Blogger but as you say, it is what we have.
ReplyDeleteThank you Guido for spending some of your time on my journal.
ReplyDeleteI never knew J Land and therefore have no grounds to compare the present with the past.
But since my eyes are firmly fixed on the future I do not take much notice of what is actually under my feet unless the smell alerts me to danger.
I've adjusted to Blogger as I've had to do in many things in life. Still lots of nice people here. Never got into chat rooms so I can't miss something I never did.
ReplyDeletethx for the visit..I'll be back soon
ReplyDeleteI don't mind blogger but do miss Jland and the community spirit we had there. I've been very very sporadic with my blog and also with reading the need to cath up again is upon me, but at least we do see each other on facebook it's fractured but were still there.
ReplyDeleteI so agree with you Guideo...Blogger is just not the same. Still I plod on and one day maybe just maybe it will develope the warm family feel that aol had....with all it's problems !

I appreciate all the efforts you make to keep us all in touch. Blogger is great in the fact that we can still do so if we wish.
ReplyDeleteI was staying caught up until about two weeks ago. This week I'm determined to catch up again, so that's what I'm doing with your blog right now! lol
