I've been getting
Please republish your blog in 10 minutes.

For the last 2 hours.

I get this too sometimes but when it happens it's because my connection is very slow at this times. We have high speed cable connection but for some unbeknown reason it sometimes slows down, allmost to a grinding hold.

A few times I could not log into blogger, an error message would come up saying "this blog does not exist" but it had to do with the connection being slow at that time.

In this cases I usually hit the refresh button and will do the trick. At least that's how it works for me.

I have nothing useful to add except that when this subject showed up in a New Posts search, I thought it said Blogger Scheduled Outrage--and I thought, "Well, yeah."

I don't know if Blogger is having issues or doing server work tonight, but I've had some trouble posting comments (and on one blog it just hung there not taking me to the comments page at all).

Blogger was having major problems yesterday. I'm inching more and more to thinking I need to suck it up and figure out how to install WordPress and just move mine.

Is it just me, or has Blogger had more problems than usual lately...?

A few weeks ago, Blogger was giving me so many problems and I got no response from tech help except a reference to their FAQs, which was completely irrelevant to the problems I was having, so I ditched blogger and moved my blogs to LiveJournal.

I'm hanging in with Blogger for a while longer - their connection with Google, the way I get some traffic from their "next blog" feature and the time I've invested in the current template all motivate me to stick with it.

That said, I've really not noticed it being any worse than usual. But it can be frustrating when it's not available when I want it to be.

Almost every time I see the title of this thread, I mis-read it as "Blogger Scheduled Outrage."

That is all.

Blogger.com will be down on April 24 2006 from 4 pm PDT to 4:45 pm PDT due to planned maintenance. We’re sorry about the one-two unplanned/planned outage punch today, but we need to do some database maintenance. You will still be able to view your blogs during the outage. Be assured that when Blogger.com comes back, it will be shinier and happier than ever.

Thank you Unique!

I have been trying for a couple of days to 'republish' my index with some changes I made to some broken links. It hasn't been successful yet. Hope later tonite it will. I have new duckie pictures :) The boy duckie is now walking around with the girl in our back yard. He's a noisy one.
