That is the down side to all of us relying on something that is free to use. It is ironic that it is quite similar to issues that Blogger had years ago (like in 2000) when they couldn't keep the servers running properly. Sad, but true. I guess we get what we pay for ....

It took over nine hours before they bother to post a note saying they are aware of the problem, when, no doubt, the problem has been ongoing since last night's maintenance. Also, they failed to update the twitter_status account *again*. They keep having the same "display issues" over and over, even if the reasons are different, and never appear to learn how to be more aggressively handle customer service.
