Well, it appears at least some of the pitfalls of technology are already rearing their head on the blog.
Apparently while upgrading blogger (this site) google ran into some technical difficulties.
Here’s what happened: during scheduled maintenance work Wednesday night, we experienced some data corruption that impacted Blogger’s behavior. Since then, bloggers and readers may have experienced a variety of anomalies including intermittent outages, disappearing posts, and arriving at unintended blogs or error pages. A small subset of Blogger users (we estimate 0.16%) may have encountered additional problems specific to their accounts. Yesterday we returned Blogger to a pre-maintenance state and placed the service in read-only mode while we worked on restoring all content: that’s why you haven’t been able to publish. We rolled back to a version of Blogger as of Wednesday May 11th, so your posts since then were temporarily removed. Those are the posts that we’re in the progress of restoring.
So if your blog post assignment is not showing up don't worry - Blogger is on the case.
It does highlight the importance of backing up your data and anticipating the "OMG" moments as Linnetta blogged about! If you still need to do your blog post for the week due to delays in getting you added to the blog please do add it so we can get everything up to speed for week 2.
Note that any blog posts from here on out should work as expected. Only those posted between Wednesday and Thursday will need to be "recovered."
