Santa delivered a new notebook computer for me. I know - totally awesome! But there was a catch - transferring all my important information. No real problem because I had a plan. I was going to set up the notebook next to the desktop, send what I could and copy the rest. Unfortunately, on the day I was going to do this the desktop decided to throw a fit and not start.
Not the end of the world because I still had most of my feeds listed in a widget on the sidebar of my blog. That is until tonight when I changed my blog background. My widget with your blog links were lost.
Please help me keep in touch. Leave me a quick hello in the comments so I can visit your blog and add it to my Sage Reader. Thank you so much.
Yay for Santa's gifts. Boo for the computer problems. Gotta hate em'. But I do love the new background (=
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year btw.
Well I don't know if you read my blog before, but I read yours. :)
ReplyDeleteWe are kind of new to each other too but here I am!
ReplyDeleteYou're on my list! The blog looks great. I'm reading the new Baldacci book - he's a terrific writer.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year!
ReplyDeleteYay for a new computer! I thought I lost my feeds last night, but it was just a gliche!
I read your blog, but I don't know if you read mine...feel free to stop by any time, though.
ReplyDeleteThat's too bad about your bloglist. Hopefully, you'll be able to recreate your list!
Well . . . HELLO! Happy New Year, Booklogged!
ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoy your new toy. :)
This is so pretty! I love the new background.
ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteI just started to read your blog. Computer problems can be the pits.

Oh, enjoy your new computer! Hopefully, that will be the last of the glitches! Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteNothing is as awesome or aggravating as a new computer. Love them, but hate them too. Good luck putting everything back together! Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteHi, how is the new year going? Aside from computer glitches of course.
ReplyDeleteI got When Twilight Burns for Christmas and saw your name, and bookfool's, in the acknowledgements. That is so cool.
good luck with the computer crap. What the heck is a sage reader?
I don't know if you used to read my blog but you're welcome to :)
ReplyDeleteI read yours.
Yay for the computer but what a bummer to lose your feeds. Hope you get it all sorted out soon.
ReplyDeleteWishing you a great '09 with lots of good books :)
Bummer! But it will be great once it's all up and running. Happy New Year!

I hate when stuff like this happens!
ReplyDeleteI like the new look tho. Have you tried going back, temporarily, to another template and seeing if that widget reappears? Weirder things have happened.
That feed problem is one reason why I switched to an online reader like Google Reader.
ReplyDeleteWhy, I thought I would sashay over to your blog to say:
ReplyDeletethanks for stopping by...
BTW - you are not alone. I just changed the template on another of my blogs and pretty much lost all the widgets. Two steps forward, one step back!
Thank-you to everyone who has commented. I have tried to visit each one of you today and leave a comment. Also, I added you to my Sage feed reader. Hope I didn't miss anyone. I know I'm still missing some. Hopefully, I will hear from those people in the next few days.
ReplyDeleteRaidergirl3, sage reader is a tool offered by Firefox that keeps track of blogs and websites that I frequent. It lets me know when there is new content. That way I don't need to click on every blog I follow to see if there's a new post - Sage will let me know. It's like Google Reader but I like it much better.
Candleman, I did try going back but it was lost for good. I like Sage better than the Blogspot widget anyway so I need to update it anyway. Thanks for the suggestion.
Hello! So sorry to hear about your computer problems. They can be a real pain at times. Wishing you a happy new year of reading in 2009!
ReplyDeleteIt's a real pain when you lose all your links!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure if you read my blog or not, but as others have said, you're welcome to stop by.
ReplyDeleteI like the new look!
Not sure if you read mine but I read yours all the time!! I love your new background. The color is really pretty!
ReplyDeleteHELLO!
ReplyDeleteWell, you may or may not want to add me, but I actually just posted about books, so you may want to read my current post!
ReplyDeleteI really like your new background!! Happy New Year and have fun with your new computer. :)
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about your computer problems. I like the new background (this is the first time I've seen it as I usually read your posts from Google Reader).
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year.
Bummer! Great that you got a new computer, but the changeover can be a nightmare!
ReplyDeleteFrustrating but congratulations on the new computer. Have fun with your new toy! :)
ReplyDeleteHello!
ReplyDeleteOne of the times when I'm glad my husband is such a computer geek is whenever I have to change over my system or upgrade. Such a pain!
I actually don't see your blogroll at all ...
I like your new look. Did you lose absolutely everything? What a nuisance!
ReplyDeleteI like the new look!
ReplyDeleteHi! I think your new blog look is grand. FYI, you used to link to my Evagation book blog at http://blog.ejly.net and the feed is http://feeds.feedburner.com/blog/evagation
ReplyDeleteIf you haven't yet, check out google reader as a feed reader - it works great!
The new look is very nice! And I like the new signature feature.
ReplyDeleteHi there; I'm a new blogger and stumbled across yours...very similar format to mine. If your interested, here's mine: http://readers-journal.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteI'd appreciate any feedback you may have (or from those that read your blog).
Thanks!

I lost a lot of links when I switched templates for some reason: good thing I had a backup so I just switched back and there they were. Whew! I'm scared to get a new computer for just this reason! Hope you have all the glitches worked out by now.
