When is a blog not a blog?

Q: How to re-activate old account?  I created this account in 2004 and stopped updating it in 2005. I can still log in with my email and password. I would very much like to start using it again, but when I sign in it doesn't appear within the account and I can't figure out how to edit it...

A: If you use the word "updating" it means that you have a blog with some contents in it in 2005. It is apparent to me that you have created more than one account. On your dashboard now, if you do not see your blog, please do not click "create a blog".

Unlike other blogging platforms (word press, my space, typepad, livejournal, multiply, facebook, friendster, hi5), on Blogger, we do not call a blog, a blog. When you wish to make a new blog, you should click on "new post". Other wise you would be creating blog after blog and not posts; just like this one here:http://djlaura.blogspot.com/ which has not even one post.

If you do not see your blog (It ain't over 'til the fat lady sings) on your dashboard after signing in, you are signed in to a different account which is not associated with this blog. Similarly, you could have created more than one blog and you could have created more than one account.

You can spend a long time sorting out your accounts.
