Blogrolling.com Fast Losing Credibility
Saturday, February 9th, 2008
Blogrolling.com has been down most of the last few days and I for one am about ready to toss out their service. I used Blogrolling because it’s easy to add and update blogs to it and it automatically updates all my blogs simultaneously.
I have other options: Wordpress’ native blogroll has its limitations but at least it stays on when your server is on. Technorati also has a similar code to Blogrolling.com. This is the problem with Blogrolling.com and other online services: when they go down you have no contact info or ability to complain. I can’t do my weekly Blog Safari until I get my blogroll going. Unfortunately, that means rebuilding it from scratch. I can guarantee you that unless they provide an explanation that is reasonable when back up, I will get my OPML downloaded safe and sound on my hard drive and get the hell outta dodge.
How long should you wait when online services are down?
