Dear tBlog community, dear readers of The Capital Letter,
And so it's farewell. After just over six months, I've grown fed up with the pathetic service and constant downtime here at tBlog. So, I'm moving on. I've now set up a new blog over at blogspot.com. It has the same title, a familiar colour scheme and it will have similar content. Basically, I'm not changing anything much except the host, so it should hopefully feel like familiar territory to any readers who are prepared to follow me.
Follow this link to the new-fangled The Capital Letter.
For those of you who subscribe to my RSS feed in a news reader or aggregator, simply follow this link, which will take you directly to the feed of my new blog.
It's been an interesting last six months here at tBlog. The sense of community has been a real plus. It is tBlog's strongest suit, and what I shall miss the most. Pity about all the weaknesses that go along with it! Essentially, I think that tBlog is an excellent idea, implemented extremely poorly by a one-man team who is clearly completely overwhelmed. That is a shame, because it could be so great, but it just isn't.
Through my blog and through the tBlog chat and tmail features I've met some very interesting people, with interesting stories to tell. I've read some great posts from some excellent writers. I've seen some fantastic artwork. I've been a fascinated, at times astounded, witness of several knock-down, drag-out fights and disputes too. I've had several long posts and countless comments disappear into the ether, never to be seen again, thanks to the vagaries of tBlog. I've learned some html code, and ways to get around some of tBlog's quirks. I've made some friends, and the odd enemy. But most of all, I've had a lot of fun and learned a lot along the way. Thank you to all of you who have helped to shape my tBlog experience and to make The Capital Letter what it has become. I sincerely hope you'll click through to my new blog and keep on reading the musings of a dis-located New Zealander in Berlin.
With best wishes for your various futures, blogging and otherwise,
BerlinBear
