In fact it it makes me feel somewhat anxious about trusting my thoughts to this space.<br /><br />Of course I've tried to contact Blogger, but since they have about a gazillion users to deal with, and are probably dealing with half-a-gazillion issues and queries related to the shift to the new Blogger, my chances of getting personalised attention are probably about the same as a poor little snowflake's chances of surviving in hell!<br /><br />Until I've sorted out this blogging thing you can follow my thoughts over at <a href="http://snipurl.com/seansthoughts">http://snipurl.com/seansthoughts</a> where I am using Google Reader's share feature to aggregate and republish things I am publishing elsewhere.<br /><br />You can also check out my online portfolio and presentations at:<br /><a href="http://seanfitz.wikispaces.com/">http://seanfitz.wikispaces.com/</a><br /><br />And you can see my blogging from Second Life with BlogHUD at:<br /><a href="http://my.bloghud.com/seanmcdunnough/">http://my.bloghud.com/seanmcdunnough/</a><span style="font-style: italic;font-size:85%;" ><br /><br />(Image by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/multum-in-parvo/379599422/">multum in parvo</a>)<br /></span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2933479544731323103-1955828058189592482?l=seanfitzgerald.blogspot.com'/></div>Sean FitzGeraldhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10909100589432781884noreply@blogger.com0
