Downtime

If you’re a regular reader of this blog, you’ve probably noticed that this site has been experiencing a lot of downtime in the past few days. My server hosting provider has recently installed a new firewall, which has been randomly blocking incoming Internet access. While it appears that they have finally been able to take control of the situation, I am greatly disappointed by their slow response time and their lack of communication with their customers.

I’m currently searching for a better VPS hosting provider. Any suggestions?

    what’s a VPS?

    Virtual Private Server. It’s a way of partitioning a large server into smaller ’servers’ that you can sell. With improvements in hypervisor technology (see Xen), VPS are becoming very competitive compared to dedicated servers.

    The ’servers’ you guys will be setting up for the decal will actually be instances of Xen.
