  4. Have also experienced similar happenings LauraK...

    I'm in the middle of a 'repair' or even during a Post preparation and suddenly nothing. I'm stuck in time within Blogger.
    Can't publish. Can't save. Dead Zone.

    During one repair I had to persevere by trying all sorts of ways to get it back out onto the Blog. Took nearly an hour.

    I've also had times like that occur and cannot even leave Blogger... those times I'm a Prisoner.
    Only solution was shutting the whole Window. Of course I've had to get back cause I had not even signed out. That would then become a whole new lengthy process. The worst scenario being needing to turn off my Computer. Re-booting and trying again. Maybe more than once to finally get back and at least sign out.

    Whole happening distressing actually.

    Have noticed to avoid certain times of the day or evening, and to leave before those times occur when am in.

    Now I simply take note of how Gmail or Blogger is loading when I arrive before I sign-in...
    if seems slow, I just click stop and exit as quickly as possible.

    This will read awful am sure, but really am pleased to read another is experiencing similar oddities and freeze-ups.

    I have concluded there a times when there is heavy cyber-traffic happening with Gmail and or Blogger which is causing traffic jams and congestion... just like being on a road in a vehicle during Peak Hour times in a main City...!!!

    I was once caught on the Sydney Harbour Bridge during a Peak Hour... I think I could have read War and Peace twice as traffic flow kept inching and stopping, often with more stops than inches, before finally reaching the other side.

  5. LOL!!! Love the photo. It reminds me of some of the shenanigans we used to pull in the archaeology lab involving a study skeleton that was broken by the kids of a private individual it belonged to.The guy brought it to us for reconstruction, in no hurry to get it back, so it became our mascot. We used to dress it up and pose it--usually like our head archaeologist who was oblivious to the jokes we'd pull.

  6. I was just about to tell you that! I have had some strange happenings lately as well...things freeze up...I'm typing and there are no letters appearing...perhaps all of us happy bloggers are taxing "it"! Doesn't that sound creepy????...:)JP

  7. PS Laura K,
    The Introduction Image is a perfect definition... I often feel like that for days after a workout with research and a Post.
    Huge hugs to you from Magda(Australia)

  19. Thanks for writing this. I really feel as though I know so much more about this than I did before. Your blog really brought some things to light that I never would have thought about before reading it. You should continue this, I’m sure most people would agree you’ve got a gift.

  20. I like your art. I especially liked your skeleton-computer.jpg, and would like to ask permission to use it (possibly as a gravatar) on my wordpress blog. Please check out my futuristic novella at aethonblue.wordpress.com. It's in the cyberpunk genre, but I think our hearts are in the same place!
