To Answer My Fans Question

To my millions of fans out there, I am sorry. No, you can't find any dead tree publication of this blog anywhere. You can only read it here online, period. My blog is really a Web log (yes, they are the same, my writing log on the Web, whatever), an epitome of no-holds-barred online personal journalism, an embodiment of self empowerment on the Web at its finest . If I were to agree with any publisher to create a dead tree version, that would be a total betrayal of a technology I so embrace.

END OF BS.

(ps: i love the word "epitome" as much as anybody else, i am going to use it knowing full well that I might face the wrath of online vigilante par excellence whose name shall remain unknown ....)

Blogger Outage

Millions of my readers were welcomed with a 502 Server Error or whatever Google server spilled out and got turned away. My red hot blogger traffic brought Blogger to its knees, again.

Between 9AM to 10AM Eastern standard time, Blogger was suffering some serious gray out and most people can't reach blogspot.

Seems like things are returning to normal now.

From the horse's mouth

Blogger and Blog*Spot had very high page load times and server errors for about an hour this morning, from 6–7 AM PDT. We’ve fixed the problem. Everything should be operating smoothly now.
