Added later: apparently it was not their server, but a network issue experiences only by Comcast customers due to a break in their traffic routing to the West Coast!

If you are reading this, we are back up again from this afternoons crash which pulled the plug on tens of thousands of web sites. It was not just sites on (dv) or (gs), even premium sites like TechCrunch and Jeffrey Zeldman (promoters of MT) were not spared, even MediaTemple.net was down, as if the whole place came down crashing! Questions on redundancy, data protection and web security creep into ones mind when you realize that for the period of this black out, there was not way to reach your site via FTP or HTTP and MediaTemple via email. I am glad we are back now, but it sucks when you think that for 6 hours, the primetime Thursday traffic to all our sites got nothing but “Problem loading site – unable to connect” message. I am sick of moving servers so I will suck-it-up and stay with (mt) for now.
