Excuses, Excuses.

You’re probably wondering what happened to part two of the Why I’m Switching to Windows Phone series.

Well, so am I. I lost the post.

Apparently leaving WordPress’ New Post tab open between browser sessions is not a good idea. WordPress won’t tell you this is not a good idea. It won’t tell you it’s not auto-saving your draft. It won’t tell you why Preview doesn’t work, and it certainly won’t tell you that clicking Save Draft will show an error message on a different screen, telling you that the draft wasn’t saved and leaving you no way to recover it.

Thanks, WordPress. Not like I spent hours carefully wording that post so that I don’t sound completely arrogant, so that it doesn’t reek of flamebait, and so that all of my facts are carefully backed up with links I didn’t think I needed to bookmark.

So, the post will be up later this week if I can find the time to rewrite it, and next Monday otherwise.

Computers, eh?

    He who laughs last… has backed up.

    Yeah, I’ve learned to use a real text editor if I’m typing anything of non-trivial length into a web brower (unless it’s something like gmail that gives frequent indications of draft saving, maybe).
