Everything is going to be Alright!!
Over the past few days there has been a few rumours floating around this site (and others) about the possible demise of Blipfoto - the words "Calls Unanswered" , "Blip Central disappeared" and "Bankrupt" have all been used with great abandon!!
It certainly would sadden me if this site closed down!! I have enjoyed not only contributing to this site but also thoroughly enjoyed the contributions of others!!
Great journals from so many folk - some with not many words to accompany their photo's and others with great prose to go with their great shots!!
But it also is a reminder to me of the value of friendships!
Online friendships are formed - and have been thru Blipfoto - but certainly thru a site like this, the online contact is all that many will have with each other. A window into our "friends" worlds has been opened but we have never actually met them face to face!!
Saying that I'm sure there're have been many "Blip meets" and finally you get to meet the person behind the journal - and a wonderful occasion I'm sure that has been.
But if this site is closed down, many "friendships" (subscribers!!) may will be gone forever - and a very sad day that will be !
So maybe in all this uncertainty, it is time to take stock and value the friendships that we have...and maybe just get in contact with that "online" friendship and arrange for a meet up and a chance to say Hello or even to re-acquaint one's self with that friend that, for whatever reason, has drifted away over the years
But whatever the outcome of the rumours - and hopefully they will be way of the mark - Blipfoto will go on and on and Yes Hopefully.......
"Everything is going to be alright!"
