I may owe WordPress an apology…

The revolution against WordPress and the obnoxious changes they keep making is now on hold.

Because it turns out that the changes to the search engines which started the revolution burning again my not be WordPress’ fault.

It might be Google that did it.

Now you all know I am a computer moron. So when someone told me in a comment that my low view stat numbers were due to changes to the search engines that WordPress initiated, I took them at their word. But I now have some new information, thanks to a lovely Welsh lady over at… http://artyoldbird.com/

She sent me a link that puts the blame squarely on Goggle’s shoulders… http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2013/02/01/google-image-search-redesign-raises-ire/

You should read the article…. if my link worked… because we all should be upset. I just should have taken the time to figure out who we should be upset at.

But no, I go off half cocked, I run amok, I raise the flames of revolution and go tilting at windmills… and it might have been the wrong windmill.

So, I am very sorry WordPress. I still don’t like your other changes, but maybe this on isn’t your fault after all.

    OK, keep your unmentionables to yourself – TMI that you are half-cocked. I feel sorry for your unfortunate wife. She must be an extremely understanding woman.

    Thanks for the mention, and sorry you had to learn from me…. (by the way, I’m an ‘adopted Welsh’… I didn’t start off in this place… .but I’m sure as hell stayin’ here). Google probably do need a good kicking but I don’t think it’ll make much difference. And this won’t be the last of it. We’ll get used to this and then they’ll make another change that nobody’ll like. Oh well…

    but we need a good revolution anyway.

    Well I rather like people who run amok and start revolutions. Watching you guys makes life fun and interesting. 😉
    Although, I do prefer fully cocked people myself

    Whoops, we are always blaming WP first. I think this is the second time now. Benefit of the doubt to them in future. I’m off to kick Google in the googlies

  5. Darn. I was just getting myself worked up for the revolution. What will I do now?
