Some bloggers are reporting lately that when they try to access, post to, or maintain their blogs, they see
The problem is, apparently, in the blog. I got this picture after weeks of waiting. This one comes from trying to publish a comment to "althouse.blogspot.com". Other blogs get this when editing a post, or changing the template. See various comments below.
Obviously, the problem is with the individual blogs, as I am getting comments here from folks who see the problem, in their blogs.
An HTTP trace shows an interesting symptom, here.

I was trying to make a change to the HTML, I was able to save the TEMPLATE which is always my 1st step. I added my code and when I hit SAVE, I got the BLOGGER NOT AVAILABLE.
I also have Comment Moderation turned on, I do via email and not the Dashboard. I tried it VIA the Dashboard, same error. I was even unable to POST a message to the Blog, even via anonymous.
This is a problem.
Yes. Just one.

Don't know
* Did you make any identifiable change to the affected blog(s) just before you saw this problem?
Apparently, no.
For the record: the blog has 'many' entries (900) but almost no followers. The blog is still in the old template style.
Only this one of several blogs is affected. Unaffected are: http://althouse2.blogspot.com/ and http://althouse3.blogspot.com/

The blog has been around since January 14, 2009 and has over 16,000 posts on it, with around 20,000 visitors a day. I have posted every single day since I started and hate to think this is going to end my long streak. It's very upsetting.
