The day after Egghead blogged about the Blogger beta version, I comtemplated signing up to try. I took notice that one of the condition of moving to beta is that one can never turn back to the normal version. I thought, migrating within the same blog host only, should be easy-peasy. So my itchy finger pressed mouse to click on the 'agree' button.
Within minutes I received the confirmation email of successful migration. I was very pleased at this point, for it was indeed speedy. Then I followed the instruction in the email to click on the beta link, hoping to see new features as promised on my dashborad. But alas... all I get was "The blog is currently moving to the new version of Blogger in beta. Please try back in a little while." instaed. It seemed my blog is no longer accessible. I feared for the worst, i.e. loosing all my previous posts.
Immediately after turning on my PC this morning, first thing I did was to access my site. To my relief, my site is loading again, with the latest post. I proceeded to a full backup of the blog, just in case.
After this scare, I'm thinking of abandoning ship, in this case the Blogger ship! Who wants to abandon ship with me? Say aye!
