This is directed at AR Support. Has there been any discussion of a auto save being built in? I lost a draft today because i did not save it before I tried to upload a photo. My blog draft crashed.

As others mentioned, there was a feature but not sure how reliable it is/was. Will ask the developers to look into it.

Not only hit the save button, but frequently cut and paste your draft to Notepad or Open Office or some other word processor. Because when it's gone, it's gone.

There is an autosave built in, however it stopped working shortly after it was installed many years ago.

Recently I have reinstituted the policy of hitting the save button before hitting the post button.

If you can remember, click SAVE often! That feeling of losing a post that you worked hard on is terrible.
