This isn’t just a problem with Blogger, but: why offer “details” on an error message when all those details amount to is basically a unhelpful “there was an error; we don’t know why”? I need to know what’s causing the error, not just another reminder that it exists. If I see a “Publish error” in Blogger, I’d like the “details” link next to it to tell me more than “There Were Errors in Publishing.” If you can’t help me resolve the error — and I understand if you can’t, since sometimes these things simply require patience and persistence and don’t necessarily mean something’s actually broken — why offer me a link or window that indicates you can?

This particular case is a minor issue, may not even be on Blogger’s end, and will likely resolve itself momentarily, but I’m generally much happier with technical help that admits it can’t help me up front than with the offer of help that…well, isn’t helpful.
