Creative Industries Level 5:Relying on Internet

Now i wasn't affected by the PSN Outage but with this 'Blogger Outage' i am, as i had near 38 blogposts for my Creative Industries portion of my Blogger but then ended up having 22 blogposts and so because of that and also learning that fellow classmates had been receiving their lost blogposts back and myself still to receive my missing 15 posts and deadline looming i had to redo near enough all of the posts that were lost.But as i checked back on the Blogger Buzz Blogpost i learned that with blogs that had lost alot of content would end up having to wait much longer for their posts to return and as i had a couple of days to get those posts back and do a few mor eplus report i thought its a best bet to not wait for the posts to come back as Blogger Buzz gives no indication of when they could possibly return and i couldn't risk that so i have wasted a day on doing blogs that took me two days to do, so to have the lost posts return the next day or  in the coming days would only aggravate the issue of data being lost and stressing the issue of backing/keeping a copy of the data. Here is the update of lost post:

Update (5/14 5:37 PM PST): We're making progress restoring comments, some blogs with a lot of content are taking a little more time. Thanks for bearing with us.

Update (5/13 7:46PM PST): Nearly all posts since Wednesday are restored, now bringing back comments from last couple days. We expect the comments to be back this weekend or sooner.

What a frustrating day. We’re very sorry that you’ve been unable to publish to Blogger for the past 20.5 hours. We’re nearly back to normal — you can publish again, and in the coming hours posts and comments that were temporarily removed should be restored. Thank you for your patience while we fix this situation. We use Blogger for our own blogs, so we’ve also felt your pain.

Here’s what happened: during scheduled maintenance work Wednesday night, we experienced some data corruption that impacted Blogger’s behavior. Since then, bloggers and readers may have experienced a variety of anomalies including intermittent outages, disappearing posts, and arriving at unintended blogs or error pages. A small subset of Blogger users (we estimate 0.16%) may have encountered additional problems specific to their accounts. Yesterday we returned Blogger to a pre-maintenance state and placed the service in read-only mode while we worked on restoring all content: that’s why you haven’t been able to publish. We rolled back to a version of Blogger as of Wednesday May 11th, so your posts since then were temporarily removed. Those are the posts that we’re in the progress of restoring.

Again, we are very sorry for the impact to our authors and readers. We try hard to ensure Blogger is always available for you to share your thoughts and opinions with the world, and we’ll do our best to prevent this from happening again.
