Blogger.com went down...

I had a problem posting or logging in tonight, so I won't be able to make all the posts I wanted to before I go to bed. I would like to know what happened as there is no indication of a problem on the status page for blogger.com.

STATUS PAGE

Update::

On the Status Page linked above had an update:

Tuesday, January 23, 2007

Publishing on the old Blogger was failing with "Error 550" since approximately 5:30PM PST. It was fixed at approximately 8:00PM PST.

New Blogger was unaffected. Sorry for the inconvenience.

That nasty "Error 550" was the reason I couldn't login or update my blog, but thank goodness New Blogger wasn't affected. Oh wait...I am a new blogger, so why was I affected. Too funny...I had to point out that apparently all bloggers were affected by this infamous "Error 550".

I tried looking up what "Error 550" really was and well...I still don't know. I have read things that say it is a path issue where there is a "/" where there shouldn't be to the admins being on vacation and some slacker has screwed up. I think that it would be cool if the "Status Page" were just a little more informative and precise on what the problem actually was and who all was really affected. I am sure there are a lot of people out there that are wondering the same thing in regards to what exactly happened and why they couldn't post. In any event...if someone can elaborate on "Error 550" by all means let me know...I am curious now :P
