Publishing on the old Blogger was failing with “Error 550” since approximately 5:30PM PST. It was fixed at approximately 8:00PM PST.< /p>
New Blogger was unaffected. Sorry for the inconvenience.
And it has started again for the old sites at 1:30PM CST.
Update: I was wrong, it was new sites:

New Blogger has had troubles this morning, which you may have seen with slow requests and 502 error pages.We are working on this and hope to get it resolved very soon.
Update, 1PM: These issues have been resolved. We are continuing to monitor and diagnose closely. We apologize for this morning’s poor performance.
You may still see 502 errors on occasion, but waiting a few seconds and reloading the page should work. This is mostly limited to a handful of blogs, however.

Any reference to a Paul Simon song title is sure to capture my attention. Now I have my earworm for the afternoon…
Today I’ve seen occasions of new-Blogger blogs simply not loading, even after a wait of a couple of minutes… no message, nothing. I realize what Google is undertaking is a major transition, but it certainly seems to have run into a lot of difficulties over a fairly long period of time.
And the hassle for a new-Blogger blogger (which I am, on the YDD Annex) in posting a comment on an old-Blogger blog (e.g., jams’s site) is almost great enough to make me post anonymously, with my name in the comment itself instead of the name box. The cookies seem to be session-only, or in some other way not “sticky.” I prefer sticky cookies. With milk or coffee, if possible.
Actually, my experience has been that if I comment at Jam’s place first, I’m identified at all over the other sites. If I ID myself at Karen’s place, no one knows me. It’s weird.
I dump all cookies every time I shut down, so I don’t worry about that, but they ought to last for the session.
