Blogged Out

Over the past few weeks, my colleagues and I have been unable to login to any Blogspot ad. This made us wonder, what was up with blogspot, was it down time? A quick search for a possible problem dredged up old articles of how, once upon a time in 2006, Blogspot had been blocked by Indian ISP providers. The problem was complicated by the fact that it has taken over 20 days (and calls every day to a call center) for my Tata Indicom internet connection to be shifted from the 8th floor to the 9th floor in the same building! Exemplary example of mumbai’s efficiency. We finally realised that a certain ISP was probably blocking the sites.

Which is why, today I am posting my first post after such a long time. It is interesting to see that my last post has earned a comment from some one at italki.
