Ohmy!  That would have made me sooooo angry!!  Since I use Opera to post with, I have not once used the toolbar interface since it was first initiated about a year ago, so I haven't lost a post this way!!!!

You figured out my tastes... some of them at least. I haven't quite remembered the post-that-got-away but I will eventually.

I think (I fear..) it will take more than a quarrelsome toolbar to keep me quiet.

Me too.. sometimes I think the dictionary is easier. Have a bit of trouble with the small print these days, however :)

no problem - great minds think alike, obviously :) I usually work on my poems in word, otherwise I lose the window and have to sign in again (too much thinking).

I hadn't thought of google, so maybe I'll look at that too. Meanwhile, back to Word.. which I must say I like rather less than Lotus but we have to move with the times (sigh).

thank you - I'll try to remember that - news to me, but always glad to learn new ways to get to where I want to be.

I don't find the upgraded stuff any different...

maybe I am missing something... The spellchecker thing was the same that happened to me.

oops - didn't realize I was duplicating Muser's suggestion

Don't ya just hate when that happens!
That's why I always write in "Word" then copy/paste.

OH, Mneme...do I ever know that sinking feeling! I nowalways write

my posts in WORD, or Google spreadsheets and documents which I only recently discovered and love! Go to the Google website, and click on more Google

I love being able to access my documents/stories from any computer; one of the best featues is that it automatically saves every few minutes while I  am busy writing!!! Then just copy and save to BLOGIT!

Mneme, never forget Ctrl + Z which will take you back a step as many
times as you want.

Hi Bhaskar
I'm well, thank you, how are you? I'll try not to lose the next post in the never-land of blogit cyber-space.

Hi Tanga
I think I'm going to have to write in a word document and then copy it over till I get used to things..! I've accidentally pasted the last-but-one thing in sometimes, and even with Word I occasionally hit delete instead of copy - duh. Not sure blogit can legislate against finger-trouble LOL.

Hi mneme, That is a Blogit mystery. How are you?

I have also had a
few problems. Like when you highlight something to copy it so that you do not lose the whole post it vanishes completely. Mmmm...I hope these teething problems do not last much longer.
