Bilingual Posts / Post Bilingue

Wednesday, December 7th, 2005 -- Buzzurro / VERSIONE ITALIANA

This blog is bilingual. This post is too. If you click on the Italian flag, you can switch to its Italian version.
Since now, some posts will be bilingual.
I was born and raised in Italy, I’m mother tongue Italian, there’s where I come from.
That’s the obvious reason why I will always write in Italian too.
Italians can read the Italian version of something I will write, because not everyone is proficient in English.
“Italian version” doesn’t mean “translation”. I’m planning to write more or less the same concepts in both languages. More or less, because translation is treason.
I hope you appreciate this feature of our blog, made possible because of the software behind it.
The base software is called Wordpress, a really really WONDERFUL one, while the thing that makes bilingual posts possible is called Polyglot, and it was developed by Martin Chlupac, who I thank.

How much is our blog worth ?

Tuesday, November 1st, 2005 -- Buzzurro

J.Doe asked me: what does this mean ? It’s just a game, I guess it is supposedly the blog’s market value if filled with advertising:



My blog is worth $92,584.56.
How much is your blog worth?

But I don’t think we’re gonna pay the bills with our blog.

Comments on this Blog

Sunday, October 2nd, 2005 -- J. Doe

Comments are welcome on this blog IF they are not offensive. I read lots of other posts on other blogs and some posts I agree with and some I don’t. I have NEVER left an offensive comment though, like one of the visitors to my blog recently did. Criticise ideas, not people.

Here are some of my comments for Scarlett:

You say you are a good Christian, but have you ever read that part in the Bible about ‘do unto others as you would have them do unto you’ ? I don’t think so, otherwise you wouldn’t have written your hate-filled comments on my blog.

I don’t slander you because your family came to the US in the 1700s so why do you slander mine because they immigrated to the United States 2 centuries later ?

As far as speaking the English language goes, we both went to schools and had the same opportunites to pick up an English grammar book and study it. I can see from your comments that I have mastered the spelling aspects more than you, regardless of the fact that my family ties to the European continent are more recent than yours. If you insist on using such hateful language, maybe you should learn to spell it correctly.

If you are suggesting that I am less American than you, you are wrong. I was born in the US and my heart, 100 percent of it, belongs there. Perhaps judging from your comments you should move to Iran or Saudi Arabia. You write like you think you would be more happy in those countries, but to be honest within seconds of opening your mouth there you would be thrown in jail, tortured and maybe killed. Those countries that you praise do not allow the same freedoms of different opinions that are allowed in the USA.

I am sorry in the Nazi regimes in Europe only succeeded in killing 6 million of us Jews. We as a people will be around to spit on your grave.
