Hello, Cara, Emma and Lincus, I am totally aware of the frustrations and have been searching for an alternative, but it is not an execise which can be done in a hurry and see Multiply as our immediate only option. Afterwards it will be easier to take time or relocate by a link, but the main criteria is to save the corner as a whole, with members work intact.

 

Unfortunately..I now know all I need to know about MSN usage and all facilities, but this is the only one I do really know and Multiply has neither appealed to me nor warmed to my attempts to familiarise myself with it as a 'group' set-up. I have developed a site of my own in Multiply somewhat, but as my pc is playing up, as one edits...if the page/box is lost without publiction...it is lost completely. This has been happening to me when my pc switches off in the middle of an exercise. So before I can develope anything, I am loosing things. I do not understand the use of 'tags' and do not mind saying so.

 

I have posted more than one SOS to any members for help. and despite the fact they have now opened their own sites (some with help)....no assistance has been forthcoming.

(except for Gordon, who has kept in touch re his discoveries etc) but I cannot stay switched on long enough to gleam much nor do I think he has yet uncovered the secret of migration. In my opinion, we have to migrate as soon as possible, but this will only be able to be done with help from somewhere...and to be honest...it has become a bit of a headache for me alone and not one I am coping with on my own.

 

My pc problems are probably due to the amount of 'new sitw' surfing I have been doing of late that my pc is now, after being fine with a new Wifi connection, not holding its power and I dare not use it in communications for fear of passing whatever it is on. This is my husbands pc I am using.

I have now approached a friend to enquire of their friend if they can help, but as I do not know them, and if they can, there will no doubt be a charge...this I will meet to migrate the corner successfully if that is possible and my only course of action on my own.

Frustration and disappointment have become my companions since the announcement of the closure, so please bear with me and if there is only me to do something...I will try to in the near future, but...this migration thing was not on the job description role of poetry interacton when I took the post as manager and it is, as I said, something which I am not having an easy time with, regards to all, Zy
