Warning - possible outage
Google is eliminating Google+ on April 2, 2019, and they are sending me messages warning that my 'content' may be lost. I have never joined Google+, but unfortunately these tech companies have a tendency to 'help' you by signing you up to something you've never heard of (like Google+) when you really only wanted something straightforward (like Blogger). Google's response to customer outcry on this has been woeful (deeply disappointing from a company that usually communicates fairly well), and they have bunkered down and are not responding to contact from the public, so I am still not sure whether Blogger (and this webpage) will be wiped from the face of the internet.
The editing page for this Blogger page referred me to this link:
https://blogger.googleblog.com/2019/01/an-update-on-google-and-blogger.html
... which seems to imply that only minor issues like comments might be affected, but who knows when it comes to monolithic tech companies pulling the plug on applications they've foolishly wired together for no good reason. If this webpage is up and running after April 2, great - I will keep going. If not, well, it's been fun!
