Cyber Attack Over, Going to Own Domain Soon

Go to the newer version of this blog:  A Truth Journal 

From Denny:  Looks like Blogger is back to normal.  However, it takes them far too long to get the site back up and running - over a week this time.  Have started the process to get my own domain.  I'm fed up with four years of this nonsense.  If I had the time I'd web host from my own house but since I don't it's past due time to start looking for a more responsible web host that is also reliable.  Any suggestions out there?

During the cyber attack I was not able to post from The Social Poets blog but could from several others that are lower trafficked.  This blog was constantly getting redirected to several sites.  Apologies to all of you who may have encountered this.

I had the same problem whether I landed on the page or was in the dashboard area.  That was just too creepy.  So, I started yet another blog, A Truth Journal, to contain all the political, opinion and political humor posts, four years of archives from here as well as new posts.  The poetry and writing posts are already moved to the poetry blog here.

Consider it a serious spring cleaning for a four year old blog and time to polish it up for a more professional look.  Yeah, it was a mess. :)  After all, The Social Poets was the flagship blog of which all the humor, science, food, politics, news, health, arts blogs blasted out.  It's been my blogger learning curve blog.

So, if you get email for this blog, please reset here for A Truth Journal feed.

Thanks for showing up for all the posts, from the funny to the serious.  It's been great fun to write for your enjoyment.  You didn't really think a few annoying cyber terrorists and a lackluster YouTube-Blogger tech support could shut me down, now did you?  Yeah, that's right.  Power on!

New Link Page Companion to The Social Poets!

From Denny: In order to speed up the loading of the home page of The Social Poets, I've started some link pages for your convenience. As I enjoy reading other bloggers who are updated daily, and figure you do too, I like to carry their feeds and an extract of their posts. However, that slows down loading of the main blog: bummer... Thought this would be a winning solution for us all, enjoy!
