Adventures in Blogosetting: Checking the tech
Excuse me if you’re reading this same (or similar) post again.
This one’s from my usual browser (Safari) and with the same ISP (Sify) and same comp (Mac OS X).
I’m trying to see if it goes up as well, since the post from Netscape went up without no problemo.
This is at the suggestion of Blogger Support – yes, they got back to me yesterday (US time, India time differences) and were very helpful.
More importantly, they reassured me that under no circumstances has INDIAN ENGLISH been banned, blocked or otherwise censored, whether through misuse of the new Flag feature or otherwise.
Whew.
So that only leaves tech problems.
Hence the current experiment to see if using a different browser/comp/ISP makes a difference.
If you’re reading this, then apparently that was the issue. If not, I’ll try again, and again…
Either way, I’m not moving from the blogosphere unless you carry me out kicking and screaming, preferably dead.
It’s an issue known as freedom of speech. In India, it’s a fundamental right written into our Constituition.
And we take it pretty darn seriously.

Here goes another attempt.
