Caution: God
So THEY contacted me, and asked me to remove them from my posts. Which seems reasonable, except that it’s a lot of work and nobody is actually reading this stuff anyway.
No, I’m serious! I have the power of Google Analytics behind me, and he tells me that I am talking to myself in a closed room. (Except for one old friend in Ashland. Hi Kate! Do you realize we’ve been friends since 1998??!! How fucking old are we!!).
While I’m talking to myself in an empty room I’d rather not do “real work” on this site, so I’m going to lock the door. I still don’t care if you read about my life, but now you have to register. I’ve turned on the register button. Anyone can do it, it only takes a second. It’s annoying, but it will email you a temp password. You log in, set a password you can remember at the bottom of the page, and then you can read good stuffs.
When I get more time I’ll either strip them out of the posts, or use a better plugin to manage users. I don’t like that you are sent to manage yourself by default. You should be routed back to the page you were logging in from. Annoying! I’ll fix as soon as I can.
This will prevent any of the eurland stuff from showing up on a google search and render SEO null and void, but even with those things, no one was reading it anyway.
I’ll try to post more useless little posts to the site, while I write out the whole euroland adventure. Stuff that will be publicly accessible without registration. Euroland is taking me way longer to write than I thought. It’s a time thing. I can write about 1k words a day. Each post is 6 to 8 k words. Then there is research. Then there is photo organization. Then there is editing. And I only get about a day per week to work on it.
So please, register! Walk into my lonely room and listen to me talk to myself. The only difference is you have to knock first before you enter.
