The other day I used one of Google’s well documented functions to import some data into a Google Docs spreadsheet.

I was simply importing a .csv file into a spreadsheet and then poooof my spreadsheet was toast, I was no longer able to access my data.

When I try to access the document it tries to load for a few minutes and then times out to a completely blank page. I’ve tried everything, emptying caches, different browsers, different operating systems etc etc… Nothing works.

I’ve tried contacting Google via their contact forms and got no response. I tried the help forums and also got no response. I even tried to @reply the main google account in a futile attempt to get someone from the goog to notice.

This was important data I was using to research investments and now I cannot access the information at all.

I suppose it’s my fault for trusting Google with my information. I guess I was a bit naive thinking that I could use the cloud without incident. I’m not going to make that mistake again.
