Blogger Can Save Your Lost Posts!

In a great move that is very appreciated, Blogger has upgraded their post-editing page with a nifty "recover post" link (see screenshot).

I used this feature last night to rescue a post I worked on for 5 minutes. I pushed POST, and it dissapeared! Clicking "Recover Post" magically brought it back. Phew!

Blogger is quick to say "This feature is not guaranteed to work every time you lose a post, but it's always worth a shot."

Beyond that, you can read more about Blogger's Recover Post feature.

I love this feature. However, now I usually write down my post in Word and then cut and paste in Blogger after saving it.

Adam, I agree that this is a great feature, and I usually post my blogs in the Blogger interface, but I would much rather have Blogger release an offline application that be used to post blogs. I'm running on a Mac so it would have to Mac compatible! At the very least, though, this is a step in the right direction. Competition will prove to be stiff when WordPress.com is released from Alpha/Beta.

wow, this site is stuck in the archives. A lot of people have been checking out my site from yours, so the "next blog" thing isn't the reason. I can't find any links to my "blogger link hack" post on this site- but that's were they are going... wierd.

This is really useful information. It is really frustrating when you came to know that you have lost all of your work you were doing for some time. But with the tips you have given, we can really get our lost post on which we were working - Weight loss blog
