EzineArticles and IE7

I have been impressed over the past year or so at the amount of traffic generated by EzineArticles so occasionally I will write an article. Just now I was writing a killer article on pricing SEO services - ok, maybe not killer (Nate’s new favorite word in ad copy), but a decent article.It took me about 10-15 minutes to wrap everything up and I was pretty happy with what I had written. Then I go to preview what I wrote - simple enough. But no - IE7 (which I used to like, then I didn’t, then I kind of did until just now) decides to block the popup - apparently Mr. Gates didn’t get the memo that we all have several effective popup blockers already installed and we don’t need yet another one.OK, no big deal - I’ll just “Allow all popups from this website” and go on my way, right? Wrong - IE7 refreshes and I have a new clean article template to start over with. So obviously I’m mad at Microsoft (no, not that mad, Mr. Slam Sandwich), but I’m kind of mad at Ezine, too. I mean, they have an Auto-Save feature, but it doesn’t seem to work. Maybe you have to click something to make it work… but wouldn’t that make it just a “save” feature?

  2. Breaking in your new running shoes will take some time so you might want to consider buying new shoes before your old ones fall apart. Nothing is worse that not having your old running shoes to fall back on while you break in the new ones.
