BlogBinders

Someone emailed me about her online novel, suggesting I "explore" her website before linking to it. Someone else commented in her blog about one of the posts here, because she objects to the "no anonymous comments" policy instituted to prevent comment spam, which is probably what the first writer would have done. Sigh! You can't please all the people any of the time! It remains to be seen whether a new service, BlogBinders, will please bloggers who decide to publish in a bound (paper) format. This is the first I've seen of one that takes the input from a blogging service and generates a .PDF file (which you can also purchase). Find more useful information by rummaging around in the BlogBinders website.

Oh, yes! I saw an ad for that, either on Making Light or on Blogshares. To be honest, I didn't pay that much attention.

AOL Journals users are currently fretting about the ability to archive their journals, in the wake of AOL's deletion of someone's blog over a spurious Terms of Service violation complaint. So far, there seems to be no better way than to look at every entry and save or copy. It seems to me, however, that paying someone to make a PDF is not the best solution to the problem. I'd much rather have a editable archive--either a .doc or an .html--than a static Acrobat file or a printout. (And if I had a .doc, or a series of them, for my 400-something etries to date, I could always print them out myself, or take the files to Kinko's for binding).

I'll try to stop back here more often than every four months.
