    I told Scott what was going on. Maybe he'll come back with something.

    Blogger is being attacked by an automated splog ("spam-blog") creator that has figured out a way around it's verification system.

    Blogger's servers are regularly overwhelmed. It's quite annoying and has tempted me on repeated occasions to move to another service; if I was more serious about blogging I would.

    AAAAAGGGGHHHH!!! NOW YAHOO HAS GONE INSANE. I checked one email site and started replies. On first one, when I clicked "send" I got a yahoo page that said "page you requested cannot be found" and that's all I got over and over, even trying to save the email as a draft. I escaped the compose page only by Xing out. Now Yahoo won't let me back in to ANY email. Just that infernal page "page you requested cannot be found". GRRRRR!!!

    Oh crud! This is Worried.

    I know of one or two bloggers who switched from Blogger to one of the other blog dookies, like WordPress, but I'm just too sentimental. I'd miss the "next blog" button!

    There are netwars going on right now, mostly having to do with spammers in Russia. They're taking out whole backbone routers to close off their enemies. Typepad and Livejournal were down.

    I think the Blogger issues have had to do with Google's database capacity being taken up by spam, like someone above said.

    The net neutrality battle hasn't started yet. But Google's getting ready to roll out huge pipes to endrun that crap, so it's not time to worry just yet.

    I worry that they are NOT russians.... or spammers....... expeically when I see them hitting political blogs of any kind. I worry...... I know I seem parnoid to some...... but......... ah well......... but the time I know for sure about "but" it would obviously be too late.
