Typepad has lost a week

December 16 2005

Three different typepad-hosted blogs (like the Dilbert Blog) that I read have gone through a time warp this morning...their most recent entries are over a week ago.  What happened?

    I noticed that also. If you go to the archive for Dec then you can see all the entries. I gotta have my daily Dilbert blog! Same behavior for VOWE.NET...

    @Don - no, all of the blog home page itself, the December archive and the RSS feed currently show show the "Tiny Goat" story as the most recent post. I have 6 more recent entries in my RSS reader the last of which is "Sequel to God's Debris" dated 15 Dec. The permalink URI to that post is 404 compliant.

    Oops.

    And vowe.net? You sure? Working perfectly from where I see it and in any case that's not a typepad (ceci n'est pas un) blog.

    Chris - it could be some goofy error with my "corporate approved" browser. But that is how I have to operate to see the latest Dilbert...

    When you log in you get this:

    Maintenance

    TypePad is currently unavailable for maintenance. We apologize for the inconvenience. During this time, your weblog is available for reading and viewing, but you won't be able to log in to TypePad to post, and visitors will not be able to comment on weblogs.

    @2 - Vowe uses movable type software on his own server. he's not affected by the typepad service, which is movable type hosted on dedicated, shared servers.

    I have several sites at Typepad (a personal non-tech blog, my wife's blog, and a site for our homeowners association). As a typepad customer, I'd received an email on Nov 14, informing me that Typepad had been migrating their servers and there were some issues. Customers were offered the opportunity to accept a default credit for 15 free days of TypePad service, or to select from other amounts (which I considered to be rather remarkable to be so trusting - very nice).

    Nonetheless, the availability of the sites and of the tools has not been up to the very high level of availability to which I'd become accustomed. My wife published a fresh post last night, but I cannot get to it this morning. I would hate to be the poor support techs at Typepad these days!
