We're having some difficulty getting one of Mark's posts up, so I'm going to test the Emergency Blogger System. This is only a test. Had there been an actual emergency, there would be a relevent post here, but this is only a test.This concludes our test of the Emergency Blogger System. We return you now to our regularly scheduled programming.
PS: We've been having trouble posting for the last 12+ hours...
3:40PM Update
I just got Mark's piece up from last night... Here is what Blogger is saying happened:Publishing to Blog*Spot is currently not working. This problem has affected the overall stability of Blogger and is causing non-responsiveness when accessing blogs from the Dashboard. We are working to fix the problem.I started trying to post in the 9 o'clock hour this morning... I love a product that is free, but I may have to consider migrating WMD to a new host soon...
Update: Publishing to Blog*Spot is back online. We had a simultaneous failure across multiple machines responsible for the publishing of Blog*Spot blogs. To prevent this type of outage in the future, we are performing a full system audit to ensure that proper redundancies are in place.
