This is my 454th post at this site, and it will be the last. 
You can find me at dameeleanorhull.wordpress.com.  Please update your links.
I'm leaving because I am not happy about Google's new privacy policy.  It's not that they know that much about me, in any of my incarnations.  I log in and out rather than staying on.  It's the principle of the thing.  So I'm voting with my feet and taking the blog elsewhere.  I have also changed the search engine that I use, and I will be moving anything else in my life that has to do with Google. 
Like the cats, I hate change.  I'm not thrilled about finding my way around a new interface.  I miss the clean simplicity of the Google search page.  But I'll get used to the changes, because they matter to me (though this may seem silly to you).
I don't even have such a lot of principles, but one that is very basic to me is the need for and right to privacy.  And I like WordPress's privacy policy a lot better than Google's. 
You'll find a post for the next writing group stint at the new place. 
So long, and thanks for all the fish.
