MM – Did you say Ello?

The first time I heard about the “Facebook Killer” social network, Ello (back in 2014), this is the first thing that popped in my head –

I managed to wrangle an invite, and joined the site on October 23rd, 2014 (yes, I searched my Gmail for the exact date). Since that time, I’ve made it a point to share my blog posts there, and occasionally scroll through my feed to see what other folks were posting, but usually as an afterthought. Then a few days ago, I got this public message on my most recent Foto Friday post

Traci, I love your photography. And I dig your spiritual tastes. So hey, I own ElloPagans but I haven’t had time to do anything with it in quiet a while. If you look through its history, you can get a feeling about what I was doing with it. If you’d like to take it over and breathe some life into it, I’ll give it to you. Lemme know.

Long story short, I now have another bit of street cred for my Internet G33k reputation. Oh, and I’ll definitely be spending more time there. *grin*

Feel free to shout out if you’d like an invite to Ello. All I need is an email addy, and I’ll send one right along. If you’re already there, this is where you can find me –

Did you say Ello? First, this is not a passive voice. Next, I am writing in an active voice. Therefore, my SEO will stop telling me how to write. Furthermore, these sentences are also shorter than twenty words. Rather, stop being so controlling. Especially since most of the sentences in this post are not mine. I will keep going while until you turn green. Two Hard Drives Revisited. I can’t believe this is still orange. Finally, it has turned. Success! First, this is not a passive voice.

  1. Congrats on a new project! I love, love the worm from Labyrinth clip. I feel like I have hit my limit on social media, although a “facebook killer” sounds lovely (even though I have a love-hate relationship with the book of face.)

    1. Thanks, Jess! I think most people have mixed feelings about the book of face (I know I do too). I always use my moniker InternetG33k (g33k = geek, for those who aren’t familiar with leetspeak…LOL) as an excuse to sign up with new social media sights. However, I think I’m pretty well set now too.
