waving android

I am currently a software engineer at Google, where as a member of the Android platform team I build frameworks and user interfaces.

weblogs.com is hassling me.

January 29th, 2002

weblogs.com is hassling me. The popular weblog aggregator seems to think it
can’t reach dsandler.org (although apparently you and I can):
Can't read stream because TCP/IP error code 10060 - Connection timed
out.
Other aggregators that implement the same XML-RPC protocol
(like blo.gs) seem to work OK.

Sorry, Dave. No more
weblogs.com for me. Interop’s a bitch, ain’t it?

update: It seems that RPC2 is just totally
down now:

pingserver: http://rpc.weblogs.com/RPC2 … Traceback (innermost
last):
