Google accidentally deleted their official company blog. If the big G can accidentally delete a blog, so can you!
On March 27, 2006 the most Internet savvy users on the planet accidentally deleted their Blogger blog! Are you kidding me!
Not only did Google accidentally delete their own official blog, but they regularly delete Blogger blogs, which violates their Terms Of Service. So, between the risks of accidental blog deletion and deliberate blog termination, your blog stands a real chance of one day literally disappearing forever. Remember your blog your data.
So what can you do to prevent the death of your blog? Simple. Be a hero. Save a blog. Get backed up with Bloggled.
Starting this Monday, we are offering to back up your Blogger blog for free! And it is easy to do. Just set up an account, enter in your blog URL, click backup, and in minutes your blog will be saved. It saves everything, including comments, and it does it automatically every week.
We are also offering multiple prizes to those who participate in their “Be a Hero, Save a Blog Contest” that is running through the day on Monday, December 15, 2008. Winners can choose from either a 16GB iPod Touch, or a Cricut Personal Electronic Cutter Machine and it’s quite simple to enter. To join the contest simply perform one or more of the following actions.
1. Join Bloggled. Register and sign up for a Bloggled account (http://www.bloggled.com).
2. Friend or follow Bloggled on one of the following social network profiles:
- Twitter: http://twitter.com/bloggled
- Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/people/Brent-Ramey/1002883214
3. Subscribe to Bloggled’s RSS Feed: http://feeds.feedburner.com/bloggled.
4. Blog about the Blogger Contest on another blog then notify Bloggled about the new blog post by commenting on their blog.
Good luck and congratulations on your decision to become a hero by saving a blog.

This is great! I made a post about this site on my blog today. I am also very excited about the blog to book feature. I hope it is up and running soon! Blurb.com used to support blogger but no longer does and I was bummed. This makes me excited that there is another site that does blog to books for blogger.
