Maintenance Update Numero 2
OK, sports fans. Here's the skinny: Things are still a bit wacked out in the TerraBlogosphere, with permissions problems all around. So, if your blog does something unusual, give it a bit and try again. We're still working out some kinkage.
With Affectionate Gurgling,
The TerraBlogs Administrators

FYI: TerraBlogs will be Down for Server Maintenance
Dear Friends,
Sometime this evening, all of the TerraBlogs domains will be down for server maintenance (for no more than a couple of hours). I know, it's painful to have to do without the blogs -- even for a brief while. Perhaps you can use this time to spend some quality time with your children, who have long since forgotten your name and instead call you "Old Bloggie." Thus stuff's gotta be done, so bear with us and know that we love you as much as we love blueberry muffins.
Mmmm, blueberries.
Lovingly,
The TerraBlogs Administrators

Just say no to comment spam
In our never-ending quest to make Terrablogs the best possible blogging service, we are trying something new in our efforts to combat comment spam. If you have tried to comment on a terrablog recently you will have noticed one extra step has been added to the commenting process. Now, rather than having your comment automatically posted to your favorite blog, you must verify that you are indeed a human attempting to comment, not some mindless bot blindly flooding our poor blogs with advertisements for your lastest poker pill, or whatever. Verification is simple. You only have to be smart enough to click the "Verify" button and your comment will go through without a hitch. We believe that our bloggers are smarter than the bots leaving spam and therefore real bloggers will be able to leave comments when bots will be too stupid to do so. (We hope that there are no hitches. If, however, you do notice a problem leave us a comment on this blog. Or, if that isn't working email us at info [at] terrablogs [dot] com).
Our goal is not to make your interaction with Terrablogs more difficult and less enjoyable, rather our goal is to make your interaction with Terrablogs easier and more enjoyable. We sincerely believe that the less spam that we all have to deal with the more enjoyable our corporate blogging experience can be. We hope that the slight inconvenience of clicking one extra button to make your comment will be far outweighed by the decrease in blogging litter that is strewn about by heartless, mindless comment spammers.
