Blogger bloat
Blogger has been S...L....O.....W.... This week. Everyone knows it. It's been eating posts and taking hours to post a comment or even move from page to page. Sometimes, it just times out on itself. Last night, I posted something around dinnertime, and hit "Publish", and went downstairs, made dinner, ate dinner, and cleaned up the kitchen in the time it took to post. blogs for industry had the same idea that I did for this phenomenon. It reminds me of AOL's growing pains in the early 90's, when it suddenly became so popular, and so many people signed on at once, that it overwhelmed their servers, and it quickly became known as "American Off Line".

Come on Blogger - keep up with the volume! Anybody have a better experience with Moveable Type or Typepad? Hell, I guess you shouldn't criticize what you get for free, but I'd be willing to pay a few shekels a month for better service. This week was horrible.

    Then, there's always PowerBlogs if you want minor pay for better play.

    It's a favorite of, among others, that irritatingly smart semi-child prodigy libertarian law prof who at least has to suffer through life with a mildly unfortunate first name.
