  Hi All, I just published a brand new post to my blog. In my dashboard, I see the post and I can reread it. When I log out of wordpress and view the blog as another reader, the newest post is not visible. Any ideas? Have things changed since I last did this?

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

  Oh no! That sounds like very bad news.
  If the post was created on the dashboard of your own blog at Dashboard > Posts > All Posts > Add New then you ought to be able to recover a lost post or page from revisions if needs be.

  (If you are referring to a Page then see here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/page-revisions/)

  I recommend:
  Always create your posts on the dashboard of your own blog at
  Dashboard > Posts > All Posts > Add New
  Always allow pages to fully load before clicking any other links.
  Use an offline blog editor so you have backups on your own computer http://en.support.wordpress.com/xml-rpc/
