My Blog was down, Like Whoa.

by Donn Felker 9. September 2008 07:26

Yeah, seriously...

My "old" host as I like to call them now decided to ... umm... how do I say this nicely ... "accidentally delete my account".I also have something to admit, I didnt follow through with my original back up strategy. The only reason this blog still exists is due to LUCK. Thats all I attribute it to. I downloaded a back up a week prior "just in case" for safe keeping. 

Why? Who knows.

When? Last Friday at 2pm. 

I'm not up on a new host (Verio) who I'm quite happy with. It costs a few extra bucks a month, but hey, its a small price to pay for a piece of mind.  In the crash I lost a blog post that I'm trying to recover (I have the text, but I need the images and I need to re-write some of the actual code for the PS cmdlet).  

Moral of the story: Have a good back up plan.
