Does anyone use A-Records anymore?

My blog keeps trying to ping my Amazon S3 account to serve content. FYI, my main page wookets.com is  hosted on Amazon S3 in a bucket. The bucket is web enabled with a policy file (see previous post). However, this blog is hosted on Google’s blogger.com.

My Hover DNS settings had three A-Records for my blog that resolved to google’s server, but checking out the latest Google blogger docs it seems like those A-Records are now defunct. Instead c-names are used. Which, I personally find a bit better about. Though it does take away SSL, but blogs really don’t need SSL.
