Have you checked your DW & LJ friends list recently?

I realized I hadn't heard from a couple of friends in some time, so I cruised my friends list. DW has this cool thing that shows you when they last posted - and they hadn't posted since JANUARY!

I sent them nudges, saying nothing more than I hope they're okay and hope to hear from them soon. And I heard back from one overnight, they'd installed a Microsoft update that clobbered their bookmarks and they weren't able to recover their DW credentials and had to start a new blog! The other two, nothing, but I just did this last night and not everyone is on every day like me and others.

I just hope they haven't become Covid casualties.

“DW has this cool thing that shows you when they last posted…”

Yeah, LJ has that too, though I hadn’t looked in a while. What it showed were postings that I wasn’t included in (filtered).

Yeah, you'd have to go to the individual blogs and see the 'Last Updated' date to see the accurate date.
