search . . . flag. . . next. . .

I decided to explore from my blog so I saw those words in my title above and clicked on "next." I was feeling brave. . . I posted on someone's blog that I had never explored before -- I had only gone to blogs that a friend recommended on their site. . . AND NOW I KNOW WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was watching the blog addy fill up and take me to the site when I noticed the words "possible porn" in the addy. . . good grief! You never saw anyone click off Safari faster than lightning. I don't think I will do anymore clicking on that "next" button!

Maybe I will try the search button and put in a topic I am interested in. . . after all, someone (Judy) found me to relay the message that they had also attended the Medford Bell Choir Festival last weekend. Of course, they are also an employee of Google so maybe they didn't use any search. . . I will never know because I went to their site and it is all google blog stuff. . .

Maybe "this" old lady will get adventuresome and find some blogs with like interests soon . . . maybe, just maybe.

Postscript:

sigh . . . the search button only searches your personal blog. That's not what I wanted to accomplish -- I already know what I posted yesterday!

Blogger used to have a search function for other blogs, go to help and make a request. That seems to be the response people get.

Check out this blog: http://bohorap.blogspot.com

I found it last week and she has great pictures, similar to yours. Another place to find blogs that you may be interested in is through Technorati : http://www.technorati.com

When I do the next, I get foreign ones most of the time! So glad that I haven't run into the nasties.

Thanks for bohorap's site. I am still investigating it. I did find out about the flicker photos there. I always wondered what that was on YOUR site. I did not know you could click on it to see photos full size. Learn something new everyday. Now I have my own! I made it all Iris flowers but one day I will try another theme.

I am enjoying her photos and will go back. . . saved the link. I will try the other addy soon.

I love figuring out how to do things on my site. Maybe after I get settled again, I will be brave enough to join one of the groups that you joined. . .

I like that little photo thing too! I've been meaning to add one to my blog, but just haven't gotten around to it yet...

I'm just starting to 'check out' other blogs too (and, like you, I have found most of the "interesting" ones from replies to mine, or replies/links on those I found from...replies on mine! LoL) Just wanted to let ya know that you're not alone in this!!
