I am using WordPress as a blogging tool, which I like very much. I even migrated my family’s personal web site and message board to WordPress recently. However. There are times when it doesn’t work well or efficiently, and I’m not sure how much is related to my hosting situation, and how much is related to WordPress itself. I’ve read on the WP technical support forums that there have been complaints of extremely slow performance with the latest version, which I’m using. I’ve also read reviews from other forums that rate my particular hosting service as downright awful. In either case, it’s frustrating when it’s slow, or doesn’t even respond.
Some day, when I’m smart enough (or driven enough) to rectify the situation, I’ll make some changes, but for now, I’m not interested in fighting this particular battle. So, my blog availability may be sporadic, and for this, I apologize (to my extensive readership –cough– ).
Is readership a word I can’t be bothered with looking it up at present. Although I find it interesting, and disheartening, that my vocabulary has deteriorated dramatically with age. However, I theorize that it’s not so much age related as it is usage-related. I think language skills tend to be ‘use it or lose it’ skills, that need to be continually exercised in order to maintain.
