Blogspot Hosed and Hosed Yet Again

Ya' know, with free services you really get what you pay for.

In the case of Google's Blogger tool, when it works it's fine. But when it fails, it really shows how cheap we are to expect more from those guys.

Heck, it's obvious that any company whose stock has topped $400 a share easily has the wherewithal to manage a service like Blogger.

So why does Blogger fail so often?

Perhaps the answer is an easy one.

Instead of fixing things back at the shop, the Blogger party animals would rather post photos on their company blog of fools smashing a broken Blogspot router ... well, that sort of says it all for me.

It's apparent what's the most important thing here and it ain't managing the service.

It's too bad these guys aren't able to post pix of folks actually fixing Blogspot.

To my normal readers, and for what it's worth, I haven't been able to get the blog's template changes to publish. Every time I try to publish, the Blogspot server simply times out at 18% with the message "001 Connection reset ."

I think my site is finally back on line. It was down most of the day and when it was up it was REAL ugly for a while (instead of just normal Blogger template ugly).

My site now gets up to 36% published before Blogger hoses up.

Oh well.

Cheap is as cheap gets.

What's GOOG at today, anyway? Hah! $339. That's a far cry from $475. It's tanked about as bad as a Blogspot router.
