The TypePad export - maybe I'll do it this time

Dear Good People at TypePad,

This is not a helpful message:

TypePad Service

We have temporarily disabled the display for visitor stats in the app.   Status updates to follow.

Especially when your definition of "temporary" is "at least three days," and the only status update you give involves republishing the same message every day so that people who are looking for the first time think it's only just happened.

I have been annoyed by these outages but haven't been motivated to get off my butt and find something better, because my weekends have been very busy of late (I'm looking to buy a car) and the thought of dealing with it all just sucks. Probably not the best customer testimonial for TypePad: "I'm a long-time TypePad customer primarily because I can't find the time to switch to something more reliable."

Maybe this weekend.
