Blogger down. Again. Is this a reliable tool?
That was bad. 24 hours of not reading any blogspot-hosted blog, 24 hours of not being able to update my blog.
I have seriously considered Movable Type or Typepad before. However, Movable Type charges you, and unless my efforts in the direction of convincing corporates and employees to blog, there is no point in spending money first and regretting later.
On the other hand, these Blogger outages seem to be getting more frequent. Usually, its a minor thing - The files are not published immediately after clicking the Publish button.. But 24 hours of ability to blog is bad.
Whats worse is - the news doe snot seem to spread. As the masses' tool for blogging, I would expect the news of the outage to be everywhere. But nothing! That brings us to another question - we suume that such news spreads very fast in the blogosphere, but the news of a huge blogger outage did not?
