Mbloggers Unite!
If you were caught by the demise of Mblog and lost everything you'd built up,
Murdock the Crazy has a petition page for you to check out. We feel it is unconscionable for a company, even if it was a free hosting site, to not give prior notice of termination of services; and to charge a $35. fee for return of our archives is tantamount to blackmail.
Aside of being forced to pay for our own intellectual property, how could we trust a company that would take such actions to honor the agreement and return our archives, even were we to pay the ransom?
Bitten once, shame on you, bitten twice shame on me!
If you were caught in this fiasco and wish to add your voices to ours, contact Murdock at: mailto:burt_gummer_uzi4u@yahoo.com or send your information to me at: delftsman3@sbcglobal.net, and I'll see to it you get added to the list.
On my way to sign it now.
I'm still learning my way around TypePad but I think I can give you a sub-site under
http://smalltownveteran.typepad.com/.
Let me know if you'd like to go that way.

I've send Murdock the mail, but do you seriously think we can get all our stuff back? :-(
