    Maybe you can look at Google's cache and get the content from there.

    Good suggestion.

    I just checked and it's there. I guess I'll start the copy/past-a-thon.


    Thank you.

    Using the name/URL of a deleted blog may not have worked in the past, but it works now.

    I tested it a couple of hours ago using one of my deleted blogs that the guy didn't swipe ... I guess he didn't think it was worth it.

    Anyway, I created a new Blogger Id and then tried to re-create the URL.

    Guess what? It worked. It was a blank template of course, but it shows that a dead Blogspot URL can be resurrected.


    This illustrates how easy it would be for someone working inside Blogger to pull this off.

    new functions added by Blogger.com. if anyone hacked by posting a objectionabale content , then those blog not be deleted but you have not aoutorize to post a new post. :)

    and those blogs never will made by another person.


    [qoute=blogger] Your blog is locked

    Blogger's spam-prevention robots have detected that your blog has characteristics of a spam blog. (What's a spam blog?) Since you're an actual person reading this, your blog is probably not a spam blog. Automated spam detection is inherently fuzzy, and we sincerely apologize for this false positive.

    You won't be able to publish posts to your blog until one of our humans reviews it and verifies that it is not a spam blog. Please fill out the form below to get a review. We'll take a look at your blog and unlock it in less than a business day.

    If we don't hear from you, though, we will remove your blog from Blog*Spot within 10 days. [/qoute]

    Where'd you get that message? Was it emailed? Did it say that under your Dashboard in Blogger?

    My dashboard is completely blank.

    Why are you explaining to him in detail how to mess up blogger accounts? He seems too interested for my tastes.

    I mean for the price that hosting and domains are going is it worth the risk? If you go to any forum about blogging you'll see that blogspot is very bad news. The question is not will it happen to me but when will it happen. If anyone here has a high traffic blog get your ass in gear and go buy some hosting. Is $6 ~$7 worth the risk? I think not.

    man, that's awful... if i were in your position i might have bursted into tears... i hope you'll be able to find a way to at least remove the blog that they stole from you...
    it really hard for me to spend for the likes of wordpress... im not sure if it requires a credit card... i dont have one and i dont live in the US so im really not familiar with it... so i prefer to use free tools on the internet...

    Wordpress is free. All you need is the hosting. And, there's tons of free blogging sites out there, some use Wordpress, some don't.

    Wordpress is a blogging program (CMS) that is very popular. You can start a blog free over at www.wordpress.com or download the software at www.wordpress.org also for free and use it to host your own blog. Blogger is free and they host your blog and Wordprerss is also free but you can download the programs and host your own blog. The advantages of hosting your own blog is that what happened to “andheresjohnny” will not happen to you because the hosting is paid by you.

    Personally what I did was:

    1) Started a blog over at blogger to learn the basics.
    2) Joined an affiliated program “Adsence” that made payments to PAYPAL “Adgenta”
    3) Waited until made some cash “took me one month”
    4) Bought tow months hosting and a domain over at Godaddy for $23
    5) Next will move my www.amar-ela.blogspot.com blog my host using wordpress

    I did not invest one cent from my pocket!!!
