  I’ve created a blog, but was hoping for a different ID. Unfortunately, the ID I wanted was taken. I don’t have a problem with that per se. My issue is that the ID was created in 2006, but has no entries and hasn’t been touched since it was opened. Is there any way to get in touch with the account owner and ask if they’d be willing to give up the name? I can’t seem to find a way to contact him/her. How would I go about it?

  Cheers!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
