The blog software used by this site is sort of a beta version and will be updated (as soon as I can get around to it).
There is a risk that blogs will be lost when I upgrade or I might even change blog software. Therefore, if you want to keep your blog data please keep a backup (copy and paste to word as you go along).
PS: I do backups and my host does backups but I cannot guaruntee restoration of blog data.
I am amazed at people who post these elaborate diarys and journals on free blog sites without realizing that the data might not be backed up and and that their precious data can be lost forever. _________________ Asia Expats Forum Expat Friends Dating
I've just started creating an Asia-Expat blog, and have been saving to Word as you've suggested, Mike.
Roughly how long until you upgrade the blog software?
Our softball season winds down this weekend so I should be able to find more time to do these things--I'll shoot for completing the upgrade by end of May.
Another option would be to create another blog on another free website and just copy and paste your entries
I have requested upgrade path from developer and hae not goten an answer. the problem is that tye are up to version 2.3 now and I am still using 1.0-so there are several steps and I amtrying to fins away to do it all at once.
I'm just finishing off some other blogs & webpages in readiness for the summer holidays.
I'll be in transit July & August 2005, so if you don't get to upgrade during that period, then I won't have to allow for reuploading in the event that the existing blog is lost.
so is this the reason why my Usergroup is "Bloggless?", or must pay to blog.. _________________ Everchanging - Everevolving, Life's dynamic paradox; so remember- happiness is in the journey, not the destination.
