Does Anyone Remember the Early Days of Blogger?
I'm trying to setup a new Blogger blog, and it's telling me there is already a Google account associated with my eMail address.
When I have the info eMailed, apparently there are two blogs (no content on either one) and one user ID associated with my eMail address.
This particular eMail address is one I have had for years. No one else has ever had it, to my knowledge. I believe I am the first person to have registered the domain name it is on. And, I have had that domain registered since before Blogger.com or Blogspot.com were even registered.
So, there's really no possibility someone had my eMail address before me and setup an account on Blogger.
When Blogger got started, does anyone remember how you started a blog? I mean, could someone have opened an account under my eMail address? Did they use verification back then? Or, was that something that would have to have been verified by eMail, as is done now?
Just curious because I can't imagine where I would have come up with these blog names, and the username doesn't look like something I would have come up with either. Still, they do all have one keyword I was using back then, but still these names don't make sense.
I suppose I could have just forgotten, and I imagine that is the most likely possibility. Still, I am a bit hesitant to claim these blogs if they were used by questionable people.
