POSTKARTEN AUS JAPAN – EINE BOTSCHAFT VON KÜNSTLERN AUS DER REGION TÔHOKU Mittwoch,
5. Dezember 2012 – Mittwoch, 16. Januar 2013
Als das schwere Erdbeben, der darauf folgende Tsunami sowie die Nuklearkatastrophe die Region Tôhoku am 11. März 2011 trafen, brachen Energieversorgung, Telefonleitungen, Mobilfunknetze und Internetzugang unmittelbar zusammen. Als Erstes war das japanische Postsystem wieder einsatzbereit, sodass in vielen Fällen die erste Nachricht darüber, dass die Lieben in Sicherheit waren, per Postkarte übermittelt wurde.

Message From Cecilia: goodluck with everything and I am sure we will meet again very soon! Take good care. Lovely to meet everyone last time. CC
Hey there would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re working with?
I’m having a difficult time making a decision between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something unique.
P.S My apologies for getting off-topic but I had to ask!
Hi Denise, I’m using wordpress. Blogengine is okay for shorter bytes. Drupal…lol…if a bunch of non-transparent dutch is doing it ineffectually on Drupal while messing up projects in AFrica…is the only time I came across Drupal driven site….that says it all…it is good if you care about infrastructure over content…but hey….nobody shows up to a site to “admire the infrastructure”!
I have not used B2evolution before but can check it out and ask around…:)….I think the swarm of Gen Zzzz will know…in terms of how it works infra….but….
I had a look and gut feeling…..it is a hell of a lot of work to get to something that is an extension on your existing website…Web development is so sophisticated and High cost/maintenance these days…..unless you are willing to devote a load of time to it….why “reinvent the wheel” again? Of course, if CONTROL is a total issue…then fine, do it this way….
But wordpress works great for me…it is ….like Sushi…easy, yummy, filling, low-fat and healthy….and creativity of presentation is up to your own ability…and no one else can change that!
P.S Thank you for lovely comments about my design. It is ALL in the content and for that I think I have to constantly thank the wonderful contributions by Artists/Musicians and genuinely thinking and talented individuals all around the world.
Goodluck. Let me know if I can help in the future.
cheers CC
Heya i’m for the first time here. I found this board from pinterest and I in finding It really interesting. I am hoping to present my thing again and aid others. Can you help me when I am set up? I hope so.
Hi! I was wondering if you knew where I could get a captcha plugin for my comment form? I’m using the same blog platform as yours and I’m having problems finding one? Thanks a lot!
From Cecilia: I don’t use a captcha because I have enough trouble getting people to comment to the right article…often I find people comment about one article after they roamed around abit so it ends up in another comment..so don’t want to add extra obstacle ! hahaha. Seriously…the natural spam filter wordpress use is good enuff for me. cheers, goodluck! CC
