Sparrow Chat has been based in France for the nearly eleven years now, and sometime ago we made the website available in French as well as English. Recently, Spanish has been added. To that end the language bar at the head of each page now has a Spanish flag icon alongside the English and French. Google translate has improved a lot since French was added and hopefully any Spaniard who uses the translation will not be disappointed.
Welcome to all new readers of Sparrow Chat, and to those returning visitors who have graced the blog with their presence over the fourteen now twenty-three years – oh my, is it really that long? – that it’s been in existence.
Much has changed in that time, both in our individual lives, and that of the world as a whole. The latter has seen a steady decline in its environmental structure, and in the political world of the major species presently inhabiting the planet, power struggles are threatening the survival of much of humanity. Homo sapiens seems hellbent on destroying the species’ only home, and those it elects to high office are happy to oblige.
The name, Homo sapiens means literally, “wise man.” It is hard to recognize wisdom in any of our leaders today.
Regular readers will have noticed a few changes in layout over the years. The advent of tablets and smartphones has meant we’ve all had to modify in order to fit our desktop websites to this smaller format. Sparrow Chat is available on these devices, but no app as yet. However, type ‘sparrowchat.com’ into any browser or search engine and you’ll have no problem locating it.
The regular ‘Blog’ page is accessible from the menu above and, for now at least, the sidebar features should still be available from there on every device except a smartphone. On these devices necessary sidebar widgets will be available at the bottom of each page (as shown below).
