I’ve not blogged for years. They’ve just been sitting there. I thought about re-writing some of them.
Oh I haven’t Blogged since 2019
Thinking of starting up again. Whether to stick with Blogger or try a new platform.
I also have a neglected blog on Wordpress
Kia Ora Sky People
What platform are people using for blogging these days?
Are we still using Blogger?
