My formatting bar has vanished. My insert link and insert picture tools have vanished. I can now once again edit the time of the post and allow or disallow comments on particular posts, but this is a small consolation. What makes the posts work well are pictures and emphasis. What makes blogs particularly useful are the links that let the reader learn more about a subject.
It’s no use complaining about something that’s free, but after coming to rely on things being a particular way, it is somewhat irritating to be denied these tools now.
UPDATE 12/4/2006: Things appear to be back to normal now. I don’t know what happened over the weekend.
