Sampa


A few weeks ago I had the sudden urge to start up another blog. However, I wanted something new and fresh and didn't want it on Blogger. I did lots of searching to find a blog host that fits my needs. Soon, I was a proud member of Sampa. Before writing this post, I had decided on copying and pasting the description of Sampa. Then, I decided to describe it in my own words. In a way, I would say that it is better than Blogger. It had everything. Photo Albums, many different layouts, full customization, free membership and more! But of course, thats what all blogs have now a days. I didn't get to explore Sampa that much since within a week I had canceled my account (more about that later). However, I did learn that Sampa blogs are not only blogs, there full websites as well. Many blogs can be created within that one website. Many pages can be created. There is so much more of Sampa I still do not know. The only flaw I found in it was that it takes a bit of getting used to in order to navigate through the design page. So, what is it that made me cancel my account? Well, let me first announce one of those famous lines...

"It's not you, it's me"
~Who knows who first said this line?
In this case the you is Sampa and the me is...well, me. The problem when editing my website/blog was that the scrollbars wouldn't show up, therefore making it quite difficult to view all options. When notifying Sampa about this, I learned that its not Sampa, it's my stupid old computer. My screen resolution is not big enough (or small enough, I don't know which). So basically, I deleted my Sampa website as well as my account. I really wish my computer wasn't so old, because I would choose Sampa over Blogger any day.
