All Clear.

It appears that all is well. 
Blog away as if nothing has happened.
Although it's probably a good
idea to doublecheck that your
profile lists your CM moniker
(and not your real name).

  1. No posts or comments for two days? This place is dead. ;)

  2. It's customary to capitalize letters in an acronym. And I don't believe you called IT anyway.

  3. Test comment. Oh, well it seems to be working. Fucking Blogger people. What were they doing? A friend of mine has 4 real estate blogs (don't ask), and he lost a ton of work he'd done in a major advertising revamping.

    Thanks to Fab for keeping this thing on track so well.

  4. Actually, if someone called IT, that just might be the problem. Doing "scheduled maintenance" (http://buzz.blogger.com/2011/05/blogger-is-back.html ) is apparently a far more effective way to take down the blog than posting disruptive comments.

    Glad to see that all is well. And now, in addition to not having my real name, google doesn't even have a backup email address for this account, since I've decided I don't trust them with that.

  5. This drove me nuts yesterday. Our server where we input our grades was down most of the day and I was jonesing for some bitching. It's times like these that make me consider moving to WordPress for my blogs.

  7. Again...

    People, Blogger profile does not REQUIRE your real name. Either make one up or leave it blank.

    Anyone else notice that yesterday Gmail asked if you wanted to input a phone number just "in case you forget your password"?

    I may have watched too much X-Files in the 90s, but I cannot help but wonder if this is an information-gathering conspiracy to sell our private data after a quick policy change in the future.

    Trust no one.

  8. @Myth: I got that message, too, twice (once for this account and once for the one that actually does have my real name). It came accompanied by a really alarmist "what if someone hijacks your account and erases your data" message, too (not just the usual "what if you forget your password).

    "Don't be evil" seems to have gone by the wayside.

  9. These theories are not nearly tinfoily enough. I think someone at blogger has been pissing off the Anons. Sony has had a lot of "scheduled maintenance" lately.

  10. Testing to see if I still have the best pseudonym up here.

  11. I'm thinking this is one of the early shots in what is sure to be an all-out cyber war between faceplace and the goo-meister...
