Sorry About The Missing Latest Posts Update

Hi all,

Long time since I last posted.
A few years ago , I think more than 3 in fact I added all the horse bloggers around I could find to Google Reader and set up a small utility using the Google Reader Share function that could be displayed on horse blogs showing the latest posts and I am afraid it is now no longer there.

I set it up like that because it was free of the normal advertising crap and allowed Visitors to view the latest posts from other horse bloggers and not have to belong to or be logged in to find other like minded horse bloggers latest posts. Plus after doing the work in the beginning it just sat there and worked fine.


Google ended the share function on Google Reader rather suddenly with little warning in favor of new things they are doing with Google + ,


So sorry to those of you who displayed it on your blogs or used it to find latest posts among the community

This Is Interesting & What Appears To Be A Worthy Cause.

Recently, I was sent this message from a man called Adrian Leon. He asked me to please include this on my blog to help get the word around so that he can finish his documentary which is explained by him in the words below. I myself watched the preview to the video, which I found quite good. Please, friends, take a minute to watch the included link & learn a little bit about it.

  • Hi There,

    I found your blog on Google and wanted to reach out….

    I'm quite the horse lover and have been self-producing a documentary about a place in Southern Nevada which uses rescued mustangs and retired show horses to rehabilitate kids who've suffered some from some sort of social or family trauma. It's about life lessons, horses and animal therapy.

    Here's a link to the preview:

    http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1381269252/horse-shoes-a-documentary-about-horses-and-the-kid

    I'm writing in the hopes that you could mention this project in one of your blog posts or somewhere on your website. Up until now, I've been self-producing the film and have just started raising finishing funds through kickstarter.com. People can pledge as little as $1.

    So far, I have backers from as far away as Europe and a very generous donor donated the camera to the production. I only have 29 days to raise the money the film needs and I'm doing the best I can to spread the word.

    I'd really appreciate your help. But if you are unable to do so, I understand but I would appreciate any ideas you have about who could help spread the word on a large scale.

    Either way, I know that everything will work out!!! If you want to talk to me, I've included my number below and I've also included my website so you can see what I am all about.

    Best,
    Adrian Leon
