I've tried to register more than once and it doesn't seem to work. :(

If anyone else is having problems registering or didn't get the confirmation e-mail (it gets stuck in SPAM filters sometimes), leave a comment with the username you chose and I'll activate the account.

Sign up. Thanks. And keep in blogging.

Hi Alex. I have also attempted to sign-up before and never received an email activation notification. I just signed up a second time adding a 1 to the end of my user name so there may be two sign up attempts under my name.

Signing up was a breeze for me. I lose my fair share of important emails to the dreaded spam filter, but this time I was lucky.

I have been reading the daily digest for a while now, and I am always in awe at finding such diverse, and informative prose. Reading your daily digest has opened up my whole world to the realization that important work is going on out there. We get so isolated in our own problems and our daily concerns that it is a breath of fresh air to know that so much is happening to change the hearts and minds of people around the globe.

Thank you to every one of you for fighting for a better, more inclusive world.

I hate to whine, but the website security system at Moveable Type sucks!

I know I have a account under the username "ajlopp" but it rejects the password that I thought I used when creating the account. So I click the "Forgot Password" link, right? OK ... but then it asks me for a "recovery phrase" ... if I'm such an idiot that I can't remember my password, how am I expected to waste even more of my dwindling gray cells remembering some Goddamn "recovery phrase"? Can't they give me a security hint that is a real hint?

Yes ... I can set up a new MT account using a different username ... but everyone knows how stubborn I am! (Has something to do with getting old, I'm told ...)

There once were additional links that allowed me to use my account at TypePad ... oh, I guess those were the Good Old Days! I can't expect Jerame to support every feature imaginable, considering the miracle he is already working just keeping this whole blogsite up and running! What will the world do when our computers self-destruct out of the sheer weight of their own complexity?

I bit the bullet. I created a new MoveableType account.

Now I am going to Cafe Press and order a T-shirt with my "recovery phrase" on it.

Bitch. Bitch. Bitch.

I hope I am registered, but who knows for sure. I have not gotten an email confirmation. I have commented off and on for a long time usually as JK Johnson. I have also set Bil, Jerame and Alex emails about and have received no reply so I wonder whether or not it all went to SPAMland; although, it was not spam.

Wow. I'm finally legit. I feel empowered now...

I guess, I, too, am legitimate now. I will use my original sign-in name "JK Johnson" and not Kim Johnson for all future comments. I guess I just have too many names.

I signed up after Bill asked me. I had thrown Pam Spaulding a few crumbs to send her bloggers to the DNC convention. He said he was going to do the same if I hadn't. My posts take about 24 hours, so I presume that they are being scrutinized by higher ups.

I want to edited by a provincial gay group from Indiana with a blog. It is a pivotal state, and the gays are mostly closeted. Interesting and I am glad the worldly lesbians have taken over the blog. I expect to see Rachel Maddow and Suzie Ormond come on this blog and post anyday now.
