Blogger explains itself

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Blogger explains itself, concerning the recent problems with publishing. Seems they have too much load on their servers. I haven’t been able to publish for most of the day, bummer. Evan is working on a permanent solution. Hope he finds one, and that blogger can stay free for it’s users. (Or at least inexpensive!)

That also partly explains my lack of posts today, the other big reason is the downfall of my hard drive. I’m busy trying to recover what I can before replacing the drive. I lost a bunch of it to bad clusters, but nothing too important. Anything really important I had copied to the network, lest I be a hypocrite about telling people to do that all the time!

    Just because I like to play around, the feed for this blog is now being redirected to a new Feedburner feed. You shouldn’t have to do anything, the old feed should simply redirect there, but if you run into any problems, please let me know! We’ll see what sort of information about feed subscribers and…

    Why would you do this?

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 2 minutes

    I don’t get asked this often, but it’s happened more than once, and it’s something I want to talk about. Occasionally when someone discovers my blog, and sees how involved I am in on-line communities, they’ll ask “why do you spend so much of your personal time blogging, and reading other blogs about your job?…
