BlogSpot was Bloggered
Last night the Blogger empire was down for several hours before they found and corrected the problem.
The other difficulty is that they host the Blogger Status and Blogger Buzz on the BlogSpot servers, so they had no way of telling anyone what was going on and when it might be repaired.
You would think that a large Internet concern like Google would know better than to do that, especially being based in an earthquake zone.
