Darn technology!

If you’re experiencing tech vexation, I empathize.

I’m not a technophobe. I don’t shy away from learning to use a new device or application. But setting up this blog had me so flustered that I signed a note to a friend with her name instead of mine.


Constructing a website on Blogger, my choice of a platform because of its reputation for simplicity, was harder than expected. Unlike the now-defunct ChicagoNow, on which I used to blog, it required importing widgets for subscribing and, I mistakenly thought, commenting. Those tasks were nightmarish.
