Untitled Post?


Untitled Post?
?
Looking through my list of posts I came across one for 4th January which said ‘untitled post’ so I opened it to have a look and add an appropriate title and labels. As I had apparently forgotten to title it I had probably forgotten labels, too.

To my surprise the post was empty, rather like my brain, but what really astonished me was that two people had commented on it! BragonDorn said, ‘Very interesting’ and SquirrelQueen wrote, ‘Your post reminds me of one I did a few months ago. I do love your header photo.’

My goodness! Is telepathy alive and well? Are my innermost thoughts and intentions so readily broadcast and received that words are no longer necessary? (I do hope not.)

Incidentally and completely irrelevantly, I really don’t care much for Blogger’s new ‘interface’ but I see there’s no alternative now . . .

  1. Blogger's changes make me crazy, Janice, but the comments on a blank, untitled post cracked me up. I think the first one may have been tongue-in-cheek and the second quite serious. I once posted a blank, untitled post, and although I removed it almost immediately, it still appeared on my Facebook page via Twitterfeed, and on my dog's Facebook page three times via Twitterfeed. So our innermost thoughts might not be being read, but our mistakes are being seen.
    And, yes, you're right, hand cream is the answer.

  2. I am managing to avoid Blogger's new interface. I tried it out once and eeek, could hardly wait to escape back to the familiar. New is not always better! Can you not go back to the 'old'? I did.

  4. That proves again that lots of people just comment without looking or reading ! But commenting on a blank post that's really something. I had lots of comments which didn't fit at all of what I wrote or photos I posted, the best was a grave and somebody wrote ! funny picture ! Maybe she belonged to the Gothic group, you know the teens who dress all in black with white faces !

  5. PS. I am still using the old system. I only switch over if they force me ! It looked rather complicated to me. Apparently it's fashion now to make simple things complicated ! Gmail too has another look !

  7. I just couldn't resist, I tried, commenting on the blank post. I really did that once. I had uploaded some photos then changed my mind and deleted everything. Then I proceeded to accidentally hit the wrong key and it published. I retrieved it immediately.

    I'm still hanging onto the old interface for as long as Blogger will allow. I tried the new one and didn't like it at all.

  8. Or perhaps they looked at a different post and commented on this one by mistake. When my head has been up in the clouds, I've done that.
