To Beta or Not to Beta ??


I come by it honestly----even take pride in it-- my stubborness, that is !!
Still refuse to watch Titanic, I already know the ending.
Held out as long as I could on not learning how to turn that computer on-- until our school went high-tech, and a whole new world of computer literacy opened up---
Only got a cell phone last summer when we went camping- to keep in touch with an ailing Mema--
Necessity---
Hate forced fads--
Haven't bought crocs yet (thinking of it though)
So,,, what's with all this pressure from blogger,, whenever we go to dashboard,,
"Your new Beta version is ready.."
ARgghhh--- resist, resist, resist,
Convince me
What's the payoff??
Logic left brain needs to know!!!

Haha, I am glad you said this, I have seen that message the past few weeks and usually sit there a few minutes thinking about whether to click or not... the more I think about it the more I worry that if I click I can never go back to the old way which as of yet is working brilliantly...

I am kind of worried that they might have yet not tested it on Mac computers, and I was thinking that I might screw up a good thing if it doesn't let me go back to the old way.... ahhhh.... until they force it I think I'll resist like you...

Nanstah... now I understand why I connect with you.

Well let me put it this way... i still haven't read a single Harry Potter. And I refuse to. I hate beta blogger and I wish i hadn't been curious about it.

Oh dear. to repeat what I said... Somebody please fossilise me.

Well, I finally gave in, and switched to the beta. I figured it was inevitable, anyway - might as well bite the bullet and get it over with. The only thing that annoys me is having to have a Google membership, which means a different user name. I haven't really explored the new options, but so far it hasn't been that different. I just keep telling myself that sometimes change is good - much as I hate it!

I have switched to the Beta - but I would stick with the old until "forced" to switch by the system. I only switched out of curiosity - some cosmetic changes, nothing major.

Yeah, I agree with Fireguy, Nan. =)

It's much easier to do layouts.

Thanks for all your input--- I think I'll stick to the "olden way" until it becomes a necessity!!

Hi all...I think I inadvertently have Beta Blogger. I don't notice much difference. Happy Belated Birthday to your Grandsons. As you see I have a new picture of Megan. She's a beauty. God we have good looking Grand Children...It must just have been a quirk when we were born..the beauty skipped a generation I guess..hahahaha.
Love, Marsh
