Blog scare!


Working the reference desk today I decided to login and "work" on my blog (I've tried on 2-3 templates before finding the right one, not excessive, I think!)

I had a scare when I logged in and found that my blog was not there! I could still see it using the link, but could not login and edit. I resolved the problem by reading the help screens a bit and learning that I might have entered the wrong login/password (thought I don't see how I did that. It might have been related to my following those directions about creating a Google account. As far as I know, I don't have a Google account.) Anyway, after sending myself a few e-mails with my correct username and password and reseting the latter twice. I can now successfully login and change what I did yesterday.

I did get pretty frustrated by this, since I did NOT want to start from scratch, I almost gave up!

So, it looks like Google owns Blogger now. I notice that Yahoo! owns Flickr and one needs to create a Yahoo! e-mail in order to use Flickr. Hmmmm.... But I'm getting ahead of my task list.
