Have you ever accidentally deleted a blog? I haven’t, but Wordpress deleted mine for having one spammy link when I was a new blogger and didn’t know better. I never got it back.
Google accidentally deleted their own blog once. This is preventable. Blogged.com blog backup service is celebrating the end of their beta launch with the “Be a Hero. Save a blog.” contest.
They will offer more blog services but for now you can get a free blog backup (for a limited time). All day today Dec. 15, 2008 they are running a contest. Every two hours they’re giving away either a 16GB iPod Touch, or a Cricut Personal Electronic Cutter Machine.
To enter, do one of the items below. If you do more you get entered more times into the drawing…but you have to enter today. Here’s how:
I believe the entire service started when the founder’s wife accidentally deleted her blog. Don’t let it hapen to you.

That’s pretty cool. i have had a Wordpress and a Blogspot blog get deleted when I first started blogging a few years ago too. This is a pretty cool service.

Just checked it out and it’s a cool service. My wife has a blogspot account and is always posting to it. She will love that I just hooked her up with a free backup. I’m also hoping to win the Cricut for my wife…will make a nice extra Christmas present.
