Just in case this happens again today

It looks like Blogger had a major meltdown and posts from the past two days were removed and supposedly backed up, but not yet restored. I will re-post whatever was lost if all are not restored.  As of now it looks like only one post was restored.  If you've been ripping your hair out over the problems with your blog, keep an eye on this thread in the Blogger forum.  I added the available updates to this problem below. 


We are very sorry that users are unable to publish to Blogger right now. We have rolled back the maintenance release from last night and as a result, posts and comments from all users made after 7:37 am PDT on May 11, 2011 have been removed. Again, we apologize that this happened and our engineers are working hard to return Blogger to normal and restore your posts and comments. We will post a report once this work is complete.

We’re making progress and hope to be back soon. Blogger will remain in read-only mode until work is complete. Sorry for the pain.

A quick reminder: in order to get Blogger back to normal, we’ve reverted back to a stable version. All posts since 7:37am PDT on Thursday May 11 have been removed. We’ve backed up those posts and we expect everything to be back to normal soon.
