Not technically hacked, but someone somehow got the blog ownership.

This is getting a little ridiculous – why can't they control their blogs? |
The link is now dead. But in the post occurred at 8:51pm and by 9:34pm PT it was pulled.
Google Reader had this snippet:
Yo! Yo! This is crazy.. I tried to register this and I could! :)

You think this is a risk? What if your own blog gets hacked? |
why their blogs can be hacked so easily? |
At least it wasn't a destructive intrusion, was it? |
Thanks Kevin, I updated the post with your screenshot. |
Looks like Google reacted pretty quickly. I'll ask if they can clarify what happened (e.g. someone guessed a password, someone accidentally deleted the blog, etc.). |
Thank you Kevin
Matt, if the blog was really accidentally deleted, HOW CAN GOOGLERS DO THAT? > if I want to delete my blog, I have to click, confirm, click again, confirm again, etc... |
It has happened more than once so whatever a Googler did, it should be documented so that it doesn't happen again. Thanks for asking around Matt. |
hey but this is horrenduous.. this is the matter of secuity issues on the fame on of the worlds bigges search behmoth.. which used to be the matter of pride for the software engineer like us .. who always appriciates the works n ideas of google .. and specially we always concern more on the security issue that is provided by google. Well its good that the above was made dead soon .

It probably did get deleted, like the main blog did. |
