You know, with yesterday's Blogger outage I was thinking about how long I would put up with the lack of service. I wasn't all that put out, frankly. I'm blogging all the time as it is. The outage gave me a chance to sleep and if it continued longer I would have finished my grading and read the news. Perhaps a little more variety at the telly as well? I know some folks are thinking about a switch over to Wordpress, but I'm told it's not that much better, and unless you're on your own hosting, some say ads aren't allowed. I don't know for sure, but I'm thinking about it again after seeing what's happening to Ann Althouse. Her blog's been taken down, and there's suspicion that this was no simple "spam blog" removal. She's a powerful blogger, and Google's a left-wing corporation, with ties to the Obama White House. Ann notes, at her backup blog:
You know, I'm beginning to suspect that there's some behind-the-scenes campaign to report my blog as abusive. People who hate/fear the Althouse blog could make a loud noise to Google.I have a roundup here: "Althouse Taken Down??!!"
