Default Oops! Google accidentally deletes its blog

Quote:
Google has admitted that it accidentally deleted its own official blog on Monday night. "We've determined the cause of tonight's outage. The blog was mistakenly deleted by us (d'oh!) which allowed the blog address to be temporarily claimed by another user. This was not a hack, and nobody guessed our password. Our bad," Jason Goldman, Blogger Product Manager, wrote in a posting on the Google Blog. Apparently, the Google Blog was unavailable for a short time on Monday.

LOL, It looks quite funny..

Yeah it looks funny indeed and how could Google make such a big mistake on its part! Deleting its own blog would be the stupidest thing to do!

I believe the google blog http://googleblog.blogspot.com that they accidentally deleted was hosted on Blogger. And in the Blogger dashboard, it is just a simply link to delete an entire blog.

Google is kinda clumsy. I read recently that they were doing some kinda something on their own property and they were trying to provide wireless internet for the event. They got the 'net up about 15 minutes before the event was over.

I am glad, too, that they admit it though. It's such a silly stupid world when everyone expects perfection. We are only humans sitting behind these boxes...mistakes are eminent.
