"I do not read advertisements - I would spend all my time wanting things."
- Franz Kafka (Australo-Hungarian writer, cockroach, TiVo afficionado)
Dear Readers: Those of you who actually visit this site-proper at http://enchanted-pants.livejournal.com, rather than subscribing or syndicating or uploading or downloading to some blog-net-feed-aggregator or whatever, will notice that garish and obtrusive advertising has infiltrated the margins of this Web site.
I know! Advertising is evil. Web ads even moreso, and annoying, to boot. I don't blame you for being upset. But please stop throwing things.
Because this invasion is intentional and expected, as I have temporarily "upgraded" my LiveJournal account from "basic" to "advertiser-supported." I am doing this to take advantage of certain premium LiveJournal tools that would be otherwise unavailable to me and which I intend to test-drive over the weekend.
Which means you will test-drive it, too. I am heading off to Florida again, this time for a mini-vacation instead of a maxi-convention. And since I will likely be without reliable access to a computer for updates to this space, I will be issuing "voice posts," to which you ought to be able to listen with a minimum of computer software and hardware. I'll test it out tonight to make sure it works.
I should note that the upgrade and its attendant advertisements are probably temporary, lest I be lulled into joining Nutrisystem or refinancing a mortgage that I don't even actually have yet. You should feel free to click-through, though. I guess we could all be thinner and richer.
