I’ve always been proud of my appreciation for the advancing technology. I am one of those who plays with a new technical toy, be it cell phone, palm pilot, or gps device until I felt confident that I had learned the cool abilities of it. I guess what goes along with the “playing around” experimentation is some mistakes.
This week, I had a couple of technological mistakes. Among this week’s experiments-gone-awry was the temporary loss of my blog format and my failure to let garminia find the satellites properly before beginning an advanced workout. Now, I have a new mistake – I accidentally deleted the wrong entry. Oops! I thought that I was deleting the entry that I was in the process of writing – and it just wasn’t right.
So, if you previously read about my Thursday 3 mile run, and are now wondering what happened…I happened. I didn’t save it anywhere else and have not much memory about the run (which was a good one), or what I wrote about, so I can’t fix it.
Oh well; there will always be more runs to write about. But you might want to start reading my entries quickly after they have been posted, because I might make another mistake. Who knows what the next one will be.
You have now been warned.
How can I possibly go on knowing now that I missed out on something? ;-)
Just kidding, don’t you just hate when that happens? Glad to hear it was a good run at least. Hopefully there’s plenty more where that one came from.
Oh man I hate it when that happens. I did the same thing once. I accidentally posted the same thing twice and I deleted the one that had comments instead of the one that didn’t. Oh well….
I recently sent out an email race report to friends and photos were there one minute and gone the next. Frustating isn’t it? I’m just sure it couldn’t have been me!!
I feel somewhat up to date with technology since I have an Ipod and a new cell phone, but besides that I am not much of a tech person. I am not sure if I will ever get a GPS device, but I like to run with others who are wearing one.
The nicest thing about making mistakes with computers is that most of them are harmless. Most! I remember formatting a hard drive at work one time. I was lucky my boss was most sympathetic!
