Before Mulitply were You Blogging or otherwise on the Internet? And if you
were Blogging - what was the theme of your very last post - before you joined Multiple?
I used to be on Y360 and I loved that place. I made so many good friends on that site and even met one from it. The lady lived about 35 miles from me and we even got to be good friends. Now she has moved away and I dont see her anymore. I tried Hi5, and didnt like it at all...then there were a couple other sites but dont recall the names but none were as good as this one here. I was on facebook for a while and didnt care for it either....lots of game playing instead of blogging....but my whole family is on it so I tried it...
360 before it shut down. Some friends then came here, so I did also. Alot of them have left here or are here but not very active. I think they are involved with facebook, which I do not like at all.
I started on Y360! and stayed until it was no longer functioning. Couldn't decide whether to use Blogger or Multiply, so posted on both of those. My first Y360 post was for our Jr. High Girl's Sunday School -- preparation for their next class. Eventually the posts all pertain to my current Bible readings. So, the theme of my very last post there would have been the same as my last one here on Multiply -- the Bible and what it means to me.
I came here from yahoo 360. I transferred my blogs from there so they are a part of what's here. Now I am wondering where to go since here things aren't working as good as they used to.
MP was my very first online blogging site. I did a chat room before that, but that got so confusing with so many conversations going on at the same time.
I actually did a blog about how I came to MP. I'd have to dig up a link to it. It was pobably about three years ago I posted that blog.
If you are interested, I found a link to that blog on my homepage under the favorite blogs lists. Its the Oct. 31 post, titled - Forever In Bluejeans To You.
Marty I was literally coaxed into blogging I kid you not and I started on Y360 as well and it was tremendous. Ironically, I had left to go mountain climbing and a friend from Malaysia had literally placed me on Multiply. Those were different times to say the least. Some when in all directions. Y360 was tremendous I loved it as well.
Rich it really did happen as there was a large transition I tried facebook but never got into it. But y360 was a great place. It had less yet it had more.
Grazie and the same to you Nico. I had a group which was all too much fun as still to this day I get emails from. After blogs were introduced a moderator from this group coaxed me to blog. That was Y360 and then it became contagious. Multiply it was....
It's all too neat Grammy as I started on Y360 - probably two years into it when I came on Y360 and I recall my first post and I had no clue whom was posting back to me but I primarily started out with poetry or pros and oh there are some hilarious stories of how I made mistakes and one had to laugh. I was having fun within a group which ran itself sorta with five moderators. It was a collaboration kinda thing. But how things have changed so much from those days to know.
Kudos to you as it is interesting to see someone whom started by the means of Multiply. I ponder at times where some of these folks of the past have gone but I think that there is now more of a connect via androids and smartphones as within the art of communication it was good to hear the other person.
Ditto here Vicky, I do have google plus it does come to be work. I loved Y360, yet I still love to read the web as time allows but most nearly all sites seem to have a link to facebook. There are so many areas, I tend enjoy one.
I know, ironically I have my old P2 computer placed away back in another city and I would love at some time to plug it in Pamela and see what areas I wrote on. As there was never a repeat.
Ian, yahoo was not prepared technologically to take on the amount of pictures so they made an agreement with a new company at the time which within here we call Multiply. That was the announcement from Yahoo and I remember it happening at the worst time as I was in the midst of moving.
I dont think there is anyplace that can replace Y360. This one here Multiply is the closest I have found so far. I went on wordpress and do have one blog on it but it is nothing like here....too hard for me to learn and navigate around it. I like things simple...lol
I have no clue DJ. I really don't know as I love my photo blog. And literally have some good friends there as I do love photography. There are so many blogging sites now, I would not know where to begin.
I loved the era of chatting, I loved three rooms where the weekend started with a morning coffee for two hours talking to a variety of people. I have never chatted within a yahoo room since then, I don't even know if they still exist. Three years well you do it well Susan.
Marty I feel the same. I feel exactly the same way, Perhaps it's due to older - maybe not - but those were the days. :) I hope Multiply does not go within the same manner as Y360 does - Lets hope.
I have seen so many Elaine, I like to have been "planted" here for as long as it last. In reference to the thought that Mulitply may be going in a different direction as announced a few months ago.
We make a social site with our posts and by interacting to each other. I notice a lack of interaction in the Multiply, perhaps its desertic situation nowadays it's due to this behavior. People has no interest in visiting their network's posts, it seems that everybody are living in their own cocoon. For example, on the Facebook just an "I like" and the comment is done without more words or attention, we are living times of superficial things in every way. I'd like that Multiply could survive the empty of Facebook and others social sites, by here the possibilty of sharing is larger and a plus, our posts can be visited anytime, even the old ones. Alea jacta est! let's see what will be......
If you have the time it would be most interesting....
ReplyDeleteWow that was a long time ago. That would have been my site at www.joyfulself.com.
ReplyDeleteI was by the hi5, it's a so empty place! I'm sure my last post by there was some scrap of goodbye everybody!
ReplyDeleteHave a sweet weekend, dear Jack. Besos!

ReplyDeleteMultiply was my launchpad to the net and I have learnt so much being here :))
ReplyDeleteI was a faithful Y360 fan to the very end. Will do the same here. The thought of adapting to yet another site makes me cringe.
ReplyDeleteBefore here, I was on Yahoo 360.
ReplyDeleteThis was my first online site,,
ReplyDeleteI'm a Yahoo 360 blogger too......I came here with a group of friends who transferred their blogs here.
ReplyDeleteLike so many others I'm a Yahoo!360 refugee. How did they manage to mess that service up SO badly?!
