Thank you, Danielle! My TA dropped (from a respectful 71 to a sad 70) by 1 point that day and was back up 1 point the next day, and I now have been able to calculate the amount of links times the average TA of those links, needed for a 1 point raise in TA. Lol!

@Jos: That’s pretty funny. You’d think Google in all of their infinite wisdom would be smart enough to use a different server for system status :P

@Danielle: Well if that’s the case thankfully the schmooze is still going strong…hehe :P

@Angela: I think Technorati is just on crack. That’s my explanation ;P

I noticed the Technorati thing too! At first I thought it was that a few of my backlinks “expired” but then it’s been up and down all day. Every time I check, it says something different.

I have the answer for the Technorati thing – they authority is based on the number of blogs linking to you in the past 90 days – so as each day passes you are losing the links to your blog that took place over 90 days ago. You must continue to build links to continue to have a high authority. At least that is what I gathered. :)

I have not encountered problems – but I have barely been online lately. I am having a Flight of the Conchords marathon.

[...] sure why the skin would have changed back. Though I do hear it’s Weird Internet Day today.. maybe that is why. Anyone here having weird things happen? No [...]

Yep. The local Google server was down, overhere. And the messag was to check status on the Google blog (which is on blogspot LOL and the blogger and blogspot servers were down as well – Grrrreat customer friendliness). Then I got attacked by a worm that Norton didn’t recognise (yippeee!) that stole my addressbook and started sending weird emails in what I think was brasilian portugese to a bunch of my contacts. No reports on the virus on the NAV site, so cleared it out myself and then wanted to send an e-mail to all my contacts explaining this but the addresbook file had disappeared. Spent a couple o TimeZones to fix that. And I didn’t even get someone to ask me if I wanted to be Gummy’s friend.

Well my skin on one of my blogs had be reset back to the default when I just looked. That is very odd. It is weird internet day for sure.

@Tish: I think I’d want to see the meteor shower. I never get to see those :( hehe

@Cynthia: I haven’t been awake long enough yet today either. We’ll see how today goes :)

@Christy: Blogspot blogs are still locked out?? But they all came back online didn’t they?

Did you get my e-mail? I hope I didn’t accidentally send it to someone else. I’m pretty good at that..hehe.

Yep, everything is messed up…even blogger.com. So all blogspots have been kicked off of PayPerPost until further notice. Nothing like being left in limbo…that’s why my new best friend is Typepad.

Tish, I wish I could have been there to see Mike open up….he’s so shy!! You must have magic powers…. :)
