I gotta admit, even though I already knew this in the back of my head, the most surprising thing about this is that Google still uses Blogspot for stuff.


How is that surprising? Tumblr uses tumblr to post announcement and Google owns Blogspot of course would use blogspot to make announcement.


Honestly, I keep forgetting that Google owns Blogspot, mostly because I keep forgetting that Blogspot still exists.


You may visit a site hosted on blogspot more often than you think. Blogspot is blocked where I live (China) so I notice immediately when I click on a blogspot link on HN. If I didn't have to deliberately turn on VPN, I might just read the post without bothering to notice where it's hosted.


True. Matt Green for example uses blogspot too. http://blog.cryptographyengineering.com/

pycon blog is also on blogspot. http://pycon.blogspot.com/
