Internet Problem Solved!


Today I spoke to one of my co-workers who knows his way around the PC pretty well. I described my problem of not being able to comment on Sarah, Sarah's mom's, and Pat's blogs, nor could I publish my new entries from my home computer. I told him I would compose my new entry at home, but would have to wait until going to office to hit "Publish Post" before it would appear. He gave me a suggestion which I tried when I came home for lunch, but it didn't solve my problem.

Tonight while talking to Sarah, she mentioned Peder was considering switching to the search engine "Google Chrome." I told her I had downloaded this search engine on my computer right after the product was introduced - thanks to my nephew Michael - but it had been sitting on my screen as an icon which I never opened. Sarah went on to say that Google Chrome may be the answer since our blogs are a part of Google.

After our conversation, I turned on my computer and clicked the Google Chrome icon. It opened and I went straight to my blog. I logged in and then moved to Sarah's blog, typed a comment, clicked "post" and Waa Laa - it worked! I moved to Pat's blog, typed a comment, and again, it worked! Here's hoping I'll be able to post this from home. If successful, I'll make the first comment. Here goes . . .

Hmmm--I wonder if I have Google Chrome? It seems like I have more trouble than just trying to comment on the blogs. Frustrating. Glad your problem is solved.

Hi Aunt Donna - I am glad you are able to be a better Blogger now! I am posting this comment from Google's SF office ;-)
