MyBlogLog Ninja Updates - Big Change on the Horizon?

May 21, 2007 | Comments (2) | Filed under: Tools

It looks like MyBlogLog has been making some changes recently, without really publicly announcing them. For the last few days, the usual methods for displaying images on your site, directly from MyBlogLog profiles, was no longer working. This included standard plugins like MyAvatars that were no longer able to display member images.

However, today, everything seems to be back to normal. I visited the MyBlogLog website for news on any major changes, but I couldn’t really find anything at all. Since acquiring MyBlogLog in January, Yahoo has yet to make any big changes. Meanwhile, the number of MyBlogLog members continues to grow which has caused their system to show some signs of buckling under the pressure. As a result, many users have started testing alternatives such as Explode and Bumpzee.

It appears these recent problems were caused by MyBlogLog shifting the storage of member images to an alternate location which is perhaps a sign of coming changes.  Could these ninja updates mean bigger changes in the near future? We can only hope!
