My Rant About Blogger
This is the 3rd time I've lost a blogger post I was working on. I came home from Nogales and had been working on a recap of what happened there. My computer froze up a few days ago. No matter. I logged back in once I'd rebooted and my post was stil recoverable. Blogger seems to autosave your post if you navigate away from the page, and if you crash, you just open a new post and "recover post" and it's there.
But I just crashed about 15 minutes ago, I opened blogger, tried to "recover (my) post", and it was gone. Gone. Totally. How can that be? It was there during the last crash. Why is it gone this time? That really gets under my skin.
I know that lots of bloggers wind up moving to typepad because of lost posts, but I don't know if typepad is any better at it.
Growl.

post a commentI always write my posts in Word and then copy and paste into Blogger, for this very reason.
I'm glad you're home safe and sound!
Glad to see you home again! Ditto what Donna does with Word.
I have one blog in Blogger and one in Typepad. I vastly prefer Typepad for a number of reasons.
Hope you had a good trip.
I always do a copy/paste on blogger before I hit post, in case it is down. What a pain, I hate retyping a post.
