  • Thank you for your support!

    From my comment on @SoulFire 's post on Xanga Survival Speculation Time.

    They don't have a lot of staff. If they believe xanga2.0 is going to make it, I can see it likely they are spending ALL their time setting up the new xanga - and there simply is not enough time to do anything else.

    One of the concepts inherent in the new model is support from the community. I view the campaign as a test of that support. If there is sufficient community support, then that bolsters the idea that the new model can work by depending on that community support.

    64K is not a lot of money for supporting hardware, software, developers, employees, etc.

    But - it can be used as a gauge of community support.

    So! I don't really think it is up to just the xanga team anymore. It is also dependent on community support. And if that support is not there - then it is time to shut her down.

    But I hope xanga survives to meet a new day! Xanga has been wonderful! It can be still! But it depends on the community! Is it there - or has it left already? Let's find out!



    Let's see what the new xanga can be!

    It won't cost that much to look!

    13 cents a day is really not a lot!

    There are so many ways xanga can meet the goal!

    One way would be for everyone to double their current contributions!

    There are others!

    Personally, for me, preserving 8 years of fun blogs for me and my friends to see is worth it.

    If you haven't made a contribution - just do it!



    Relaunch Xanga!

  • Broken G-String

     

    Somebody told me that a g-string was just like a thong!

    I really don't see the likeness!

    Do you see the similarities between a g-string...

    And a thong?

    I have played the guitar on and off since I was 9 or 10.

    I only remember my g-string breaking once!

    The e-strings broke a lot.

    But not the g-strings!

    Let's not even talk about c-strings!

    I never played the cello!
