Blogger Day 2023

So it's "blogger day". I've been blogging a long time now. There have been six iterations of this blog with the last being a design of my own. I have implemented a very advanced enterprise level database to support the structure and have written custom components to support those features I view as important.

Blogger Day is observed each August 5th annually. The day is supposed to be a celebration of the platform "Blogger" which is just another crappy controlled entitity like "Wordpress" or "Facebook".
 

I have never used the service Blogger because I didn't find it in the least bit attractive and mostly just another self limiting pain in the butt like the other cloud implementations as well as all the other hackable nothings out there. I prefer an environment that I control with those mechanisms of my own design that I control for security — and I simply decline to let some SAAS simp control my presence.

I utilize the term "blogger day" as a more generic observance because I'm not your average blogger type. I also create and modify the interface I'm using as I go along. If I see the need for a feature, I add it.

Besides, as I continue with daily entries I find that blogging isn't all that anyway. I could do without any of it by and large. I pretty much do this for Mom who is likely the only reader I have.

Happy blogger day and to hell with blogger.com.
