Anybody else having problems?...

This from a long-time reader:

John, are you sure your blog is working properly? I think I have set up three accounts now, which have allowed me to post once per each of those accounts, then disallowed my password the next time I wanted to post. I've noticed that you are getting very few comments, which really surprises me, thus my suspicion that something is not right with the blog. I could be totally wrong about this and it may be that I just don't know what I'm doing (high probability) but maybe you should look into it. Denny

As far as I know, the guys at Google who run blogger (beta) know what they are doing. Lord know they have enough people and money to keep it maintained. My assumption is a problem like this would have been reported and resolved since it would affect a few bazillion blogs. I could not find anything in the help section or FAQ's about this.

My guess - and I stress the word "guess" here - is your browser security settings may be part of the issue. If the blog cannot read from your computer who you are it cannot link you to a stored account.

I'll keep investigating, but frankly I have discovered some these problems kinda go away as newer versions of browsers/blogger software are installed. Anybody who can help us out here would be eligible for a Major Award.

Another thought - you might try upgrading to Firefox 2.0 or IE 7.0

May the Force Be With You.

Comment on comments:

There is something going on with the comments section of this blog. Once you post a comment it is recorded but sometimes doesn't show on the "comments count" of the post until I republish the blog with a new post.

I'm working on it.

Been gone on a business trip for s few days, but should be catching up today...

Thanks for reading and Happy Thanksgiving!

Never mind...

The comments problem was corrected by simply republishing. Once again : operator error.

Notes about comments...

For my browser at least the number of comments is not displaying accurately. There have been new comments on "I love it already" and "Waste and fraud". The guys at Blogger are aware and working on the problem.

Thanks for your comments.
