If I Pissed You Off...I'm Sorry

Y'all don't take this the wrong way....but,

I've been bitching lately about this MUNU Blog Bullshit. Fact: the comments have no memory. Bad, but insignificant. I also understand that you have to be invited and approved for membership "under their umbrella?" Fuck That! I also understand that you have to include their blogroll on your site. Fuck that.

Would someone please provide me the details, on why this is a good thing? I’m missing something.

I also understand this MUNU is run off some server in Australia. Now, one of my best friends is from Canberra, and I have nothing but nice things to say about Australians, but why in the fuck would you run your blog on a machine half way around the world? Makes no sense to me.

Sometimes you must pay to play.

Am I off base?

Fact 1) MuNu is a totally free service, provided on a friend-to-friend basis.

Fact 2) The hosting package Pixy Misa provides you with is AMAZING - tons of storage space, bandwidth, etc.

Fact 3) Spam - non-existent for me (so far); handled centrally on mu.nu servers.

Fact 4) YOU DON'T HAVE TO REGISTER A DOMAIN. Get it?

Fact 5) The munu blogroll may seem like an imposition, but it helps a new blogger immensely to have instant linkage on that scale

Fact 6) I think the whole Ellis Island thing is pretty all-inclusive - I've never seen the door get barred to anyone...

I could go on and on. Yes, the comment cookie thing is annoying...but Pixy is providing free, REAL (read: Movable Type) blog accounts to all comers, out of the goodness of his heart. So, while it's not a perfect world, it's still pretty fucking cool sometimes.

Me? I was sold, totally, when fact #4 occurred to me.

Queenie...Thank you, I dunn getted it.

I can't believe nobody slammed me. It's just a blog. I don't take this as seriously as others.

Oh Well!

It must take the least secure setting or something. I'm at the office now, and it holds my cookie here. I can visit any of the munus from here and my info is good to go...

I go home, and POOF, gone, doesn't work from there...so I suck it up and type it in.

Sam, unless you want a lover's quarrel on your hands, you will GET YOUR ASS OVER TO MY SITE AND SUCK IT UP!

Hey, I'd type in my info every day for you... ; )
