disaster recovery
last week i encountered a serious issue. the web host i was using arbitrarily deleted my weblog. no email. no warning. and alas, no back up. really, unbelievably frustrating.
apparently, they hadn't been billing me so they shut it down--but frankly i would have paid any amount to ensure that this didn't happen if they'd just given me a heads up--for some reason this was not a priority for them. not sure why. i am, of course, not alone in my criticism of this hosting provider.
fortunately however, i backed up my content a couple of months ago so with that and google caching (i love google) i will be able to recreate this site.
this also allowed me to upgrade to MT 3.0, and update the look a little. so please be patient while i figure out how to import my entries (i'm having a little trouble with that) and i'll be back soon. :)
