WIE7 Update

As it turns out, it was not the IE7 that was moving so slowly but this site, itself. Seems there was trouble in paradise with the server and, after fiddling around in here and finally giving up with the possibility of just chucking IE7 and going back to IE6, if that's possible, I got a wonderfully helpful screen that informed me there was sludge in the works here at Blogger. Even with the sludge one finds out and about in cyberland, it's still better than not having it at all. Considering all the things that can, and sometimes do, go wrong, it's still a wonderful tool. I love the Internet, my computer, all the software I have loaded onto it, and the options--which boggle the mind. Had I been born into all this, I probably would not feel so amazed. I like that feeling of enchantment when I'm pounding the keyboard and slurfing around the 'net. It's wonderful! So, apologies to IE7. I love the new tabs option!!! Makes working around and researching so much better--without all the zillion windows across the bottom of the tray. Yeah!

WIE7 Rant

Here's the deal: I got a pop-up message today that I needed to upgrade my IE from 6 to 7. So, I did. Now the darned thing is moving as slow as frozen honey. I am not pleased. IE6 was just fine and certainly moved a heck of a lot faster. I still miss my Windows98, too! Why can't improvements in the world of computing truly be improvements rather than a way for someone to get richer off the rest of us who just want to write or do a few odds and ends out there in the world without having to upgrade all the time just to get tech support for the programs that we want to use? ARGH!
