Ask The Admin

So here we are 2pm EST and we are back up after a morning of AtA horror. We were down for hours on end and got flooded with emails asking whats up with us. This was totally out of our hands and we will be pushing toward our big move to our own box. We also setup asktheadmin.wordpress.com for a status update page and test bed if we have issues over here. Thank you for your emails and concerns - and a big F%$& You to that dude that was happy we were down - whats wrong with people? Why read a blog if you don't like them? Anywayzzz here is the psudo-explanation from The Google...

Blogger and Blog*Spot had an unexpected outage for an hour this morning, starting around 7AM PDT. As of 8AM, all but a few blogs are working properly again.We apologize profusely for this interruption in service.

If you check our post and log here you will see thet were down for a lot longer than an hour - and only now are we fully up and stable. What happened Google? Let us know.


On that same blog they have instructions on recovering a post if you were in the middle of one when Blogger went down.

Despite all this, if by some trick of fate you lose a post — to a Blogger outage, to network trouble, or to a browser crash — you can usually recover it by using your browser’s back button or the recover post link on the posting page.
