Reason I changed The URL of my Freebies Search Engine Blog

I decide to republish this post from my blog digifreebieslist.blogspot.com (with minor rewriting) because I am redirecting the traffic from that blog to the new blog that is offering the freebies search service. The post is dated 12/30/2008

The owner of the url digifree....com has complained/accused that I was pretending to be her by having a url digifreebieslist.blogspot.com. Yes, they do share a prefix, but I have no intention of pretending to be anyone. I call my blog Creative Busy Hands Digital Freebies Search. Here are some comments I left on some blogs where I described the blog as "Creative Busy Hands Digital Freebies Search List", and not someone's else:

"DigiFreebiesList said...

Thank you so much for this Freebie. I want to let you know that I posted a link to your blog in Creative Busy Hands Digital Freebies Search List, under the Elements Only post. ...."

"Digifreebieslist-CreativeBusyHands said...

Thank you so much for this Freebie. I want to let you know that I posted a link to your blog in Creative Busy Hands Digital Freebies Search List, under the Quick Page(s) post. ..."

I certainly did not mean to cause any confusion with the url of the blog. And I thought the comments were very clear. When creating the blog, I picked the first thing that came to my mind without thinking much. And the url that I picked was available.

I am certain that the service I am providing is quite different from other freebies search blogs. The engine for my search was totally written by me. The classification published in my blog is done manually by me (and it takes several hours to go through several blogs). The process is different, the posting is different. I am definitely not using anybody's work.

I hope you are happy with the service I am providing, as this is exactly the way that I save all my digital scrapbooking files. I will be providing a new blinkie, as soon as I get home. However, it is up to you to believe whoever you want. I am only showing my points and some evidence.

I wish you all a Happy New Year.

Thank you for the explanation, I understand now how it came to be just an honest mistake. I will update my blog with your blinkie and a post to promote CBHDS. Please may I be added to your search engine again if possible. Thank you for your time. Wishing you a prosperous New Year. Kind regards Dee
