blogs.office.com disappeared
Hello, can anyone tell me what happened to blogs.office.com? The URL now redirects to the Microsoft home page and none of my saved links to blog posts work anymore. The RSS feed last updated on Frida...

Hi All - the blog site is down right now, not planned, and we are working on it as we speak.

An official update would be good. I always treated Office Blogs as ‘anchor’ announcements with the blogs here as ‘technical’ ones. A farewell blog would have been good with a placeholder at the original site. Microsoft did massively great work here over Ignite. I’m hoping this is a glitch or a misstep.

- AnnaChuOct 03, 2017Former EmployeeJohn you are spot on. Office Blogs = Tier 1 announcements for all audiences. Tech Community Blogs = more technical content and guidance, not as polished but provides all the detail you need tailored to technical audiences.

It might happen they are having problems with the platform where Blogs.com is hosted...I don't think Microsoft is going to shut them down....adding here AnnaChu Brian Levenson MichaelHolste
