Google moved their blog

May 6, 2005 by Dmitry

Google moved their blog to Blogspot (Blogger’s hosting):

To make the Google Blog a bit easier to manage behind the scenes, we're now publishing it to its new home at Blogspot: http://googleblog.blogspot.com/

There’s something odd happening with TypePad today — their API instead of categories listing gives the following error:


<?xml version=”1.0” encoding=”UTF-8”?><soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi=”http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance” xmlns:soapenc=”http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/” xmlns:xsd=”http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema” soap:encodingStyle=”http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/” xmlns:soap=”http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/”><soap:Body> <soap:Fault><faultcode>soap:Client</faultcode><faultstring>Can't find root element in the message at /usr/local/prod/cpan-lib/SOAP/Lite.pm line 2431.
</faultstring></soap:Fault></soap:Body></soap:Envelope>

Please be patient while I contact their developers.

Update: TypePad fixed this issue. Thanks to Adriaan from ecto.
