Bingo! It worked using the discontinued Google account of my old ISP. That may be illegal but it seems to be the only way it’ll work for me.

But when I click on the link, Google lists the old discontinued ISP-run account so I have to say no to using that account. That is when I’m told I have to create a Google Account to continue. Hmm, I wonder if even though I cancelled the old ISP service a year ago, maybe either they never told Google or Google ignored the cancellation. I’m going to try using my technically invalid old ISP’s Google account and see what happens.

I’ve created Google Form (yes, I will use their mechanism!) to one again collect all Newton Users locations. You can find the link below, but before you will use it, please read this:

>>> I would like to have the opportunity to contact users and have the ability to verify the truth of data (we do not need spam and bots). Hence, I asked for the address of the email, name (or nickname), country and postcode. Postcode I use to correctly locate several users in one city (and we have such cases that there are 5-6 users in the same country and city).
