Then it was Google calendar...we use that extensively to keep both phones and both laptops in synch. I sent feedback multiple times...the lighter, pastel colors are much harder to read for my old eyes. And they changed the event colors from bold to pastel (I suggested they let us choose which we wanted). Nope, stuck with it.<br /><br />I've flipped in and out of the new Blogger dashboard several times. I've tried to use it but sometimes have to go back to the old to find something I need. You're right, it takes multiple clicks to do something that used to take one. And again, what is up with the light colors...it's so hard for me to read. grrrrrrrDonna B.

(Like the word verification showing turned on when it isn't.) I moderate comments on posts over 14 days and used to get messages that had links that allowed me to delete, post, etc. The messages I got this morning had just one link ... moderate.

There used to be links in the email to let you select PUBLISH... and it would. Now it don't. You have to go to another window of the dashboard and from there check a box to let a comment be published. ARGGHHH on my Galaxy Tablet or I suspect also on Iphones, it makes you open a browser window to approve a comment, difficult when you are in email mode. <br /><br />~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~<br />Karen and Steve<br />(Our Blog) RVing: Small House...
