hi there!
i have noticed everybody getting their act together
regarding the big changeover from google reader
to other circles and links
but i'm dragging my feet.
it's not that i don't love you
and don't want to belong
but
i have issues.
i have a problem
handing over more of my personal information...
address,
working status,
even my name
to another set of people who i don't know.
i don't do facebook or twitter
for the same reason...
and then there's the information or photos
i may post there...
what could they be used for or by in the future.
i am cautious...perhaps overly...
but i'm not committing 'til i see how this all plays out.
so if you see someone
behind the crowd...
just observing my friends racing ahead...
it's probably me.
....and by the way
i'm knitting a little jumper for kai,
'cos in another couple of months
the weather will be a bit cooler
and he just may need it.
the back's done...the front is on it's way...
waving to you from here
behind the crowd...
naturally Carol xox
What are they doing to us now? I haven't caught up yet. Grrrrr more changes.
ReplyDeletethey are scrapping google reader...nobody seems exactly sure how that will affect us really.
ReplyDeleteI just use my blogger dashboard. I assume that will stay the same? You are on my sidebar so I won't miss your posts.
ReplyDeleteThe colours of the jumpervarevjust great! X
I use my blogger dashboard too, but I have signed up to Bloglovin' as a backup. I didn't want to risk loosing all the lovely blogs I follow! And I can see how many people are following me on there now too. :)
ReplyDeleteYou are absolutely right to just go with what feels right for you :-)
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet little jersey, Kai is going to be THE best-dressed babe!
xx
I hear you Carol! I am on facebook and the privacy thing kind of freaks me out a little. I find myself rarely going there these days...I don't think I am up to date with the google reader thingy. I just use my dash board too, doing what I have always done.
ReplyDeleteLove the little jumper :)
Have a lovely day!
xx
you wont be on your own carol. i tend to be very cautious about these things too.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful jumper! I love the pattern and the colours. I've not yet made any switch regarding Google Reader or anything yet either :)
ReplyDeleteHi Carol - I'm with you too. I'll just wait and see how it all pans out.
ReplyDeleteYou are such a wizz with your knitting these days! He will look super cute in this jumper. cheers Wendy
Love that knitting, such a nice mix of colours! I'm like you too regarding all the current google stuff and will wait and see......Wishing you a wonderful weekend!
ReplyDeleteHelen x
You are such a clever knitter!
ReplyDeleteI've just joined the bloglovin' bandwagon, and all my blogs from my reader were moved over automatically, and I think I registered with my google account, so not too much an invasion of privacy really.
I'm not super savvy when it comes to all that either. xo
Love the knitting...colours wonderfully boyish. Love the background fabric too! My head is in the sand as usual about the changes to google reader :) Jillxx
ReplyDeleteIt is good to be cautious...something we need to be vigilant about teaching our children in this world of today....It would be lovely to hear you say you are going to get the chance to hand deliver such a beautiful knit??? xxxx
ReplyDeleteCarol you should be fine just using the reader on your Blogger dashboard, that's going nowhere for now. Or start yourself a private blog and put a blog roll there.
ReplyDeleteI use my dashboard too and it seems to be business as usual today with the reader gone, everyone still there, no one lost thank goodness. Those colours are wonderful Carol, grey and teal = my favourites and the pattern looks very much like The Pebble? Mel x
