The only problem is that all companies fuck up now and then and what's happened with Blogger can happen to any other, Wordpress included. Maybe the answer is to use two blogs and synch the content by posting simultaneously from an offline editor. That's what I want to try as soon as I find get my WP blog sorted out, though the next problem will be the offline blogging editors for Macs. Without exception every one I've tried has been shit, and using the excellent Windows Live Writer means a reboot or slowing the computer down with a Windows virtual machine running. Still, another advantage would be that you can save the posts locally in case of a similar outage in the future.<br /><br />Hmmm.

The forces involved are too small by several orders of magnitude.
