I have somehow picked up a 'follower' on this blog.
No idea who it is but from the comments I take it this is someone using machine translation. Why would someone want to leave messages on a blog they probably don't fully understand? And what's the point of commenting on a blog by posting compliments to the writer rather than leaving views on what the writer has said?
But then, there's a lot about the internet that I don't understand.
Like why people who are worried about their privacy join Facebook and post photos and family information.
Why a couple of my friends send me jokes via email, leave in their own address and phone number but ask me to remove these if I'm posting the jokes on and get annoyed if I forget. You're dealing with a 65 year old here. If you want the info removed, do it yourself before you send me the jokes.
Why it's dangerous to have multiple accounts on Facebook. One of my friends has 4 at the last count, all used for different purposes - games, etc - and so far, he's still alive and unhacked.
Why it's now also considered dangerous to have multiple email addresses. I have several. They have never been hacked. I've had one suspect message to one of these dormant addresses and no, I didn't post the sender the two thousand quid he was asking for. I may have lost a lot of brain cells in my life but not that many.
But my favourite has to be people who 'stumble across' porn sites when looking for perfectly innocent stuff on the net. Never in many years online have I 'stumbled across' porn. I suspect what these people mean is they keyed in 'hot Russian babes' just to see what would happen and were then horrified at what they saw.
Wonder how many friends came to this thinking it was about the Gers. As if.
