Blogger.com history unveils

After posting the last message below, Today [Oct 13, 2006] morning I have started searching the previous history of blogger.com site downtime. As per status.blogger.com yesterday’s issue has been caused by spammers and congested network issue. But I’m still doubtful if it is a spammer issue only the access to the server would have been an issue. But I have seen entirely a different page instead of blogger.com home page which is well known.

You know blogger.com and blogspot.com have a bad time in almost every year in October month. See the links below to believe me.

This link says Blogger.com has been hacked on October 25, 2002 which apparently caused a downtime to the site. http://www.internetnews.com/dev-news/article.php/1488711

This link by an Indian blogger confirms that blogger.com site was down October 27, 2004. http://pr-india.blogspot.com/2004/10/bloggercom-down-on-wednesday.html

Well, I wish to grab attention of blogger.com technical and security experts to investigate this issue on the above angle, this could be an point to be considered to safeguard future October events.

Here comes the question, Is it still safe to use blogger.com for writting our weblogs. Will there be a security for our efforts writting the blog here ? What if an alternate is chosen say 360.yahoo.com?

Hope Google will not let it's users passing away from this place. As not only the October incidents many times the blogger is continuesly unavailable for hours together.
