    Like in the Title I have been having a 408 Server time out when I try to view my blog.
    I was wondering what is going wrong here. Thanks for your time!

    I see the public part just fine.

    I was hitting it a couple of times Friday. It's just the server being overloaded for some reason. My money is on staff doing a backup.

    When I publish a new post, 408 server time out comes out. My internet connection is fine to visit other websites. What's wrong?

    I think the answer is in the above post; the server that your blog is on is overloaded. Staff does a lot of work on the weekends. How long has this been going on, and are you able to save the posts as drafts?

    I got your blog to load, although it's very, very slow.

    If you typically include images in your posts, you might also want to reduce the number of posts per page to speed loading times for your viewers. Options > reading under blog pages, reduce the number to say 5 or 6 and then click "update options."
