Hijacked Blogspot

My readers will have noticed a 'change of tone' of my past few messages on the Liquid Development blog. I was experimenting with publishing options on blogspot, so that I could also publish the blog to a different domain name, and blogspot without no apparent warning decided to release my subdomain name liquiddevelopment.

Next thing I knew, people start writing me that are getting garbage through my feed. It seems that some porn spam king got hold of the name as soon as blogspot let it go and they put it to nefarious use.

I wrote to blogger.com 3 days ago and I hope they will be able to fix the situation.

Fortunately the content of the hijacked feed is so extreme and out of character that there cannot be any doubt to my readers about what happened.

I'll keep you posted on how it goes with blogspot.
