Say Hello to Google+ Comments - NOT!

After careful considerations and long fruitful chats with fellow TCs, I have decided that it is finally time to give G+ comments a try. This is in accordance with Google's effort to keep all their products somewhat unified and tied in a way. Seeing how important Google sees the G+ community, I think it is only fair to give this a shot. It does come with a downside though - You have to have Google Plus account to leave a comment. That, and the lack of a feature to moderate comments under a single tab is kinda off-putting. But I'll give it a whirl anyway and see how it goes. Hello Google+ Comments!

Update: Notification is not working - I'm reverting to Blogger's commenting again. I've been busy with work, and it took me several days to realise I have not been getting any notifications for the comments left in this blog. This is disastrous as it isn't practical for me to view 200+ posts one by one to look for new comments. I've decided to take a U-turn. My faith in G+ comments is seriously dented now, and it's gonna take some serious convincing if I were to switch back to G+ comments again. To those of you who have left G+ comment questions here, I'm afraid I won't be able to see your messages (please repost them once I reactivate Blogger's comment system).

Delayed Posts and Comment Replies

Hi all,

I am a little tied up at the moment, and I'll be away from my computer for a few days. All comments will be replied by Thursday, 19 of July 2012. Sorry for any inconvenience caused.

Cheers and God bless.

Pending Comments

Thank you for all your comments and emails. Unfortunately, I am a little tied up at the moment due to my MSc project dissertation, and I won't be able to reply all your comments immediately. I will try my best to reply the simple ones. All other comments will be replied by 20th of May.

Regards,
Yoga.

We are on G+

Whoah!

Whoah! 36 new comments. I'm extremely sorry for not being able to reply your comments for the past 1 week. I'll start replying your comments/emails now :)

Assignments

Just a quick update. I've been tied up with another assignment, due next Wednesday. I've been getting plenty of emails and comments. My apologies because I don't have the time to reply your comments/emails at the moment. I promise I'll have a look as soon as I'm done with my assignment. Until then. God bless.

S.O.S.

This is a quick update. I have few comments awaiting moderation. First of all, thanks for commenting. Here's the thing. I am very occupied at the moment with my assignment, and it is due Monday. Kinda racing against the time to finish it up. I promise I'll reply all your emails and comments as soon as I find some space for myself. Until then.

Blog Update

Just came back from California a few days ago after attending Google Top Contributor Summit. And now my internet is back (yeahh). I spent one whole day just to reply Blogger related emails - imagine.

So, some blog updates:

1) I don't take questions directly any longer. But fear not, I am still attending to you guys - only the platform has changed. Previously, you could send a question directly to me via email, and I'd reply to you. Now, you need to post your question in Blogger Help Forum, and if you want my personal attention, head over to the 'Ask a Question' page in this forum, and send me the link to your question thread. I will reply to your question. Nothing has changed, except for how your question reaches me. I have strong reasons to change to this system.

• First of all, many of you mis-type your email addresses. I spend lots of time creating a solution for your problem, only to find out that I'd never reach you ever again - since your email address that you leave in the contact form is wrong.
• Some of your questions are so unique. With private emails, it was such a shame that I couldn't share the answer with anyone else.
• Next - some of the questions that you ask are so simple. Not that I don't answer simple questions, just that it is unfair for your to wait for my looong reply for simple questions - you could get answers within minutes if you post the same question in the Help Forum.
• Yes, other users will be able to help you as well. So there's no guarantee that I'll be attending to your question. If you want me to specifically answer your question in the Help Forum, just leave a foot-note at the end of your question requesting me to attend to you. In any case, as long as you summit your question link to me, I will come and have a look. If you're already attended by someone else and if the discussion is on the right track, I might not interfere.

2) Right now I still have few things in my hands to take care of. But I'm seeing good days ahead, so new Blogger tutorial posts will be up in a couple of days - or sooner. Just publishing this post to let you guys know that I am still alive.

Keep blogging, and as always, if you have any problem, feel free to seek for my assistance. I'll be happy to help. Here's a picture of Android 2.3 figurine - Gingerbread, from Googleplex. Cheers and God bless.
