Blogger.COM has been unreliable today. Timing out and generally not performing well. This entry is being written in Wordpad rather than with the Web interface since the interface is having problems loading at the moment. I would guess that Blogger.COM is having some issues with expansion, and that they need to upgrade hardware and software to rectify the issues. When it works it works well. At other times it is a pain. It just seems to time out returning the page or returns an error. Still for a free service with no advertising it is remarkably good. Thanks Google.

This morning I needed to send an SMS message on my phone urgently – and when I tried I got an error message saying that the memory was full, and to close some programs and try again. A reboot fixed this. But what was going on? The phone should be able to cope when programs crash or do not return all the memory that they used. I should not need to restart the phone to get it to work. I guess I need to start looking for a new phone.. .I will have to see what is available out there.

A bit later I am planning on having a run – maybe 4km depending on how I feel. The weather is fairly good for running so I dont think that will hold me back. If anything it will be fitness levels holding me back. But I will see how I go. I do not expect to break any land speed records, but I do expect that I will be able to run reasonably well.
