God damn it!

If you’re a Blogger and/or Blogspot user and I read your blog, I probably tried to comment on your blog today. But since I’ve been getting the exact same identical word verification image for several hours now (even through restarting my browser and everything!), I haven’t been able to comment.

Blogger doesn’t mention that this is a bug, but I’m betting it is. I mean, the whole rest of the intarweb’s working for me, images and all.

I’m curious. Any Blogger users out there (who have word verification turned on) who are actually receiving comments this afternoon?

    Totally unrelated, but I have been unable to get on gmail for several hours now. Anyone else?

    I had similar problems yesterday. I couldn’t even access the web pages and when I was able to, I got all the xml non-friendly not-so-understandable codes in a plain text format.

    Blogspot sucks.. So does x-diary thingies.

    But I guess users cannot really complain as they are getting it for free?

    I love your stable site. 🙂 So do I for my site. 🙂

    hmm. I had a friend Daniel at travellingboi who said to me yesterday that he was getting that word, smenita and couldn’t comment on my site. I had no idea what he was talking about until now.

    I was unable to browse any blogspot sites at all yday when I got home from work..

    Well that’s just great. Now it’s an epidemic. I WANT TO BE ABLE TO COMMENT, DAMMIT!

    The word smenita can be heard if you play the song “Shake Yer Dix” backwards.

    Or so I’ve heard.

    ?

    I’m not entirely awake right now.

    oh, did you try using a different browser when you came up with that behavior? I wasn’t able to comment with Firefox but I was able to with Internet Explorer. See, IE isn’t that bad some time. 🙂

    I hate Blogspot comments… Haloscan is better, but still has issues.

    They appear to be working now, in Firefox and everything. We’ll see.
