I have come back to Blogger and started a new account

 

My new Blogger account that I set up today is called sift666 - I would have called it SIFT but the name was already taken. That's OK, sift666 has quite a bit of history now as well.

My new account can be found here: sift666.blogspot.com

The irony of this is not lost on me - after a decade of avoiding Google I'm now back revisiting Google owned Blogger again because my WordPress blog is still getting very little traffic since Google black listed it in 2016, and I've become disillusioned with blockchain sites like Steemit, Hive, and Blurt over the past few years due to insider corruption and ever decreasing engagement and payouts...


My self hosted WordPress site is here: www.frot.co.nz - that is the big one with thousands of pictures I won't be posting here, but what the hell, I feel like giving Blogger another go.


I started out on Blogger way back in 2008 with this post and I always liked the way the platform worked. After trying out every other platform under the sun since then, I have come around to thinking "oh fuck it, I don't like Google but I use Android every day, so maybe I'll step down from my righteous pedestal and start a new blog back on Blogger again"

The first thing I find is that it hasn't changed, and with no clueless updates, it's still fun and easy to use. OK Google, you got me, it's still a great blogging site for concentrating on creating content, and if you can manage to not censor me or shut the site down I'll start posting on Blogger again.



what day is it?

trumpies

triumphs were the greatest cars of all time, writes one of my blog followers - how about some more trumph pics?
ok then i can do that
my first trimph - the famous blue one that was indestructible and did 15mpg
i couldn't find a pic of the purple one, but heres a pic of the white one which of course inherited the awesome mags
how could anyone bury a trumpy? sick dude...
this pic is from the 71 world rally - first car in the rally to get busted.....
suave and styling
they don't make cars like that anymore thank god.... but the blue one did 180kph no shit, and the white one once demolished a brand new 2001 land rover and barely got a dent, and the purple one could handle pretty rough off road thrashing - real cars!

10 years

i don't make a habit of doing personal blogs because it's a sick and depraved habit, but this one is personal - even though i pinched it from my friend oli - me too


I wish to mark the 10th anniversary of the tragic death of my good friend Sam Raphael. He was killed on February the 20th 1999 and we are the poorer for his passing. Hardly a day goes by I don't think about him...

Toe to toe
Dancing very slow
Barely breathing
Almost comatose
Wall to wall
People hypnotized
And they're stepping lightly
Hang each night in Rapture
