why is blogger watching me?

    drmike I found a trackback from the URL above on my blog. I don’t get it – am I dense or what? Why on earth would blogger be watching me after I deleted my blog with them. Or does this have some other meaning I’m not picking up on?

    EDIT: I just twigged to how busy it is for you. Please mark this as a very low priority and leave it until tomorrow. I’m sorry I didn’t really look at how busy it was before I posted this.

    I cut and past the link on my search bar and it won’t go through. It stops at =true’.

    I know. Do you think I’m being paranoid nosy? Why on earth would I have a blogger trackback when I no longer have a blog with them?

    Maybe someone linked to you on their own blog. But that link isn’t from a post though. Because of publish-body and blogID. But I get trackbacks from Blogger but because someone linked to me but the link is different than that. But I was paranoid too when I got my very first blog. Someone from my blogroll was on my site for 8 freaking hours. And then someone else from China was on for seven hours. So I emailed a few people asking what’s going on and is this normal. They said sometimes people leave a browser open without knowing. lol But don’t worry about it. Probably nothing. But can you repost the link so I can see or post the link in half so it won’t be cut off. I’m curious now.

    Was that your old blog id? I’ll be honest. I don’t have a clue as I don’t know Blogger. As to the 7 and 8 hours, it might have been someone sending links into Babelfish and getting them translated since they were coming from China. (Either that or a spammer)

    No the trackback link was not the link to my old blog. I used the former link to my blog there and came up empty 404 as I should have. It’s probably just a babblefish thing as you suggest.

    I’ve gotten Google translated links and they usually had the word ‘translated’ in them or the babblefish word.
