Secondly, I see that some of you have been voting in the poll, that's great. Unfortunately it won't let me see who voted what, so I'm hoping that the one who isn't happy with the blog will let me know so we can resolve the issues they have or get some input on what I can do to help. I know it is a real pain in the butt to get everyone moved over from yahoo to a new blog service, and I appreciate your patience and faith in me to give this one a shot. Remember, we still have our yahoo ones so if this doesn't work we can always go back. Also, if yahoo gets their act together having our accounts active over there still will allow us to easily transition back.
Also, I have an update on some blog addresses that you can add from your reader program. If you are having trouble getting people added, let me know, I'd be happy to try to help out. I won't be making these links so that it will be easier to copy and paste for you. The list so far is:
- cshore987.blogspot.com
- aprilshore.blogspot.com
- towheyj.blogspot.com
- peggieshore.blogspot.com
- katie0114.blogspot.com
- mike2e.blogspot.com
- jp2espeaks.blogspot.com
---> Currently Uncle Jim's settings (jp2espeaks.blogspot.com) only allow people he invites to view his blog, but I was never able to get the invite system to work (no one ever received them when I sent them). If you get his invites and get it to work, please let me know. At this time I am unable to view his blog or add it to my Google Reader.
I will post this at both blogs so that everyone can find it. I'll try to remember to send out some tips in a future blog (such as being able to rename people's blogs on your reader page to make it easier to know who is who).
That is it for now, please feel free to give me a call or send an email if you need help or really really dislike this new blog format. I will do my best to help out. Take care guys and gals!

I had the same problem with Jim so I'm glad it's not just me. I also was not able to add April but I will try again later. Thanks for all the hard work. I think this will work fine.
I retract my last comment. After going back to my page I found April's link so other than Jim I think I'm up to speed.
I am the obvious problem, here, so I will reset my BLOG to allow everyone. I think that Victoria may have checked that box for me.
Thanks again, Chris. You have done a GREAT job with this transition!!
I have completely lost my Yahoo BLOG. It has failed totaly and I can no longer access it. I can't even bring it back from the control page.
I will have open access to blogspot (JP2E speaks) today...
I just reset my "permissions" to allow everyone.
Give it a shot now...
I know I have the blog site, but I don't know how to link to everybody. Do I have to view each persons blog site to see if they have a new blog?
Love.
Chris, I'm here now. I have sent out e-mails like uncle Jim did... his worked just fine for me and I didn't realize that there was a problem. Some Ideas for Grampop: we could all set our Blogs to e-mail him when we blog so he'll know to check in (the e-mail will actually be a copy of the blog). or he could set up a my.yahoo page with his old ID, and mark our blogs with the RSS function and they will update on the yahoo homepage.
Just some ideas.
By the way... my new blog is:
http://tomsoccasionalblog.blogspot.com/
but you may have to go through the e-mail the first time since right now I have it set up to only allow those I invite. (not too keen on ax murderers reading about my family you know).
