I just started this...

...and I already hate using Blogger. If you folks out in Google land are reading this, you have some major kinks still to work out in this...When I try to sign in from my blog (i.e. click on the "Sign In" button in the upper right hand corner...nothing happens! Extremely frustrating!

So then I go directly to blogger.com and click on sign in and I keep getting bounced to nowhere with no explanation. So now I go to help, where Google happily explains that I should essentially delete all files, cookies, etc, make sure scripting is enabled (it is) and then restart and everything should be good....except it still doesn't work. Extremely frustrating!

So, then I remember that I downloaded Firefox at one point, so I try that....Voila! It works! Why it doesn't work for me with IE6 is still a mystery....I know you guys don't like Microsoft and all, but you gotta play ball with those guys...

Last point of pain...when I go to log in, I started this blog under my gmail account, jfarrlley@gmail.com, while I started another blog that died a quick death 3 years ago with a blogger account, jfarrlley. Here's the rub: It asks me which way to login, the old "blogger" way or the new "google" way. If I choose the new way and type in jfarrlley (my google account), it shouldn't log me in to my old blogger account! Extremely Frustrating!

I apparently need to type in "jfarrlley@gmail.com" into the new login to differentiate new vs. old.

Bottom line: It took me 30 -45 minutes to figure out how to access my own blog....

And I thought Google was going to make the world a better and more happy place...
