Well now it seems that Blogger has finally gotten on the page and realized the possibility of losing users to WordPress as they backed up their blog and examined all the neat features at WordPress. (Full disclosure: I have blogs on both WordPress and Blogger and while I think that WordPress is far superior and more in line with the "zen of blogging" I stick with Blogger due to its popularity)
To backup your Blogger blog, on the Settings tab, locate the Blog Tools section at the top.
Click Export Your Blog and the blog will be exported in xml format to a location you specify. It is just that easy.
I will be posting a reminder about backing up your blog template and your blog posts as part of the next Data Backup Day.

This is just the information that I am looking for. I'm wanting to start backing up my blogs and didn't know where to start.
I can't believe you posted just what I'm needing! :)
Nice, clean and easy. As always, Thomas, thank you!
That was easy! Thanks, Thomas.
Thanks for your easy-to-follow instructions. I would join everyone in the big back-up on January 1, but I already did the back-up!
01 January 2009 & I just Did It! Thank you for the heads up. I have more peace of mind now.
No way! It can't be that easy! I've been wondering how to save my blog after hearing another blog network had crashed. Thank you for Data Backup Day and including this blog post again! My blog is safe.
I am late finding this, but thank you and I really needed this.
