Betsy's Back! Blogger Behaves in Bogus Ways
Well, as I noted here before, I wasn't the only one having problems with my Blog account. Posting and getting weird messages and no info from Google. Betsy's Page has returned, finally, after a tussle with Google's Blogger. Betsy remarks that presumably Google isn't in this Blogging business for charity. Of course, they are not. While the service is "free", Google is like a bank: they house information that we generously entrust them with and they get "interest" in the form of click-throughs on our blogs to advertising that they get paid for.
Should enough people remove their information (just like a bank without money), Blogger is a big bunch of nothing. Some of the bigger blogs like Betsey's and many others would cause a huge financial drain on Blogger, I'm guessing, if they chose to move on to another service.
It is in Blogger's self-interest to get a little more service oriented--they should at least know the big bloggers and treat them with a little R.E.S.P.E.C.T.
