Which I highly recommend because negative commenting is rare. The people I follow there are uplifting and supportive. You can log on to it with your google account and it carries your google name over as its user name. <br /><br />That said. I still use Google+. The tone is different, I feel less attached to people on Google, of course, you are an exception because we know each other eye to eye. Then I switch back to DISQUS for poetry and writing discussions. <br /><br />Like you, I view FB occasionally because that's the pivot point for what's going on in the family. They all use FB religiously. Even though I have many in my Google circles, they never post anything there.<br /><br />Finally, TWITTER is a bust for me me - so far. It is cluttered and for the most part useless. I only followed a few of those in the writer ilk and I get so many twits with junk I've practically given up on it. I keep trying though. And as you've noticed, I'm a bit long winded so 140 characters doesn't lend itself well to my frame of mind.

The problem is if I'm there too long, my video card crashes. Oh well, the joys of having an older computer.<br /><br />RolandRolandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02560536747820631438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5139007933437911710.post-14322657876928695692017-05-04T17:23:33.593-07:002017-05-04T17:23:33.593-07:00Yep.

FacePalmPlant gets more yield in some way, but there's less -- a lot less quality.<br /><br />DawnDLKeurhttps://www.dlkeur.com/noreply@blogger.com
