"Amid complaints that things are disappearing from Facebook -- of course they are; Facebook is again in the process of "improving" the site -- there have been admissions that some of you-all don't back up your blogs. Mercy forfend! Back up NOW and regularly thereafter!
I don't know the procedure for all blogs, but here are a couple I do know, and the other services probably have something similar:
BLOGGER: Go to Settings/basic, blog tools and click on “export blog” then click on “download blog” button.
WORDPRESS: Go to Tools (lefthand column in dashboard), click on “export” then click on “download export file” button.
Right now -- backup yer dern blog!"

I use this very handy little utility. Not quite as often as I should, though. It's free, by the way, and so easy to use that I can do it...
Does it then mean that you can print it off directly, or does it have to be "translated" back into what you see when you read a blog?
I will have a look later- off to Market now!!
erm....looks good, I need my Geek Wizzard here to translate the words a bit.
Doing things online or even over the phone is ok as far as it goes- but having a real person here is so much easier!!
Thanks gz, I just backed up!
