WORDPRESS FAILURE: RETURN WORDPRESS BOOKMARKLET NOW!

***WORDPRESS FAILURE: NO LONGER POSSIBLE TO CONTINUE MY CURATED INFORMATION BLOG ON WORDPRESS***

With no warning and no reason that makes sense, WordPress has discontinued the WP bookmarklet from Add This. This bookmarklet is essential for the way I create this blog. This site is both a research storage site and the curated information blog for sharing some of research on “creative expression” in our lives and communities with you.

Unless there is a return of the bookmarklet within the next 10 days, I will need to find a new platform for the blog. I will appreciate any suggestions.

WORDPRESS–YOU ARE A TOOL ONLY; TOOLS THAT DON’T WORK ARE REPLACED! AND IT WOULD BE HELPFUL IF YOU WOULD ASK YOUR CUSTOMERS BEFORE MAKING SO-CALLED IMPROVEMENTS.

          I love finding the “hidden” creative places that those outside their immediate areas know nothing about. The Creative Center, founded in 1994, is a hidden gem to those beyond the New York City area. It has been supporting the arts in health in hospitals and other settings for 23 years. Explore their work and get some ideas for your own community.
