Well, the blog’s back. Dreamhost was down for most of a day. Something to do with those LA power outages.
Hm.
Pinging stuff I care about.

That amazes me. Surely their servers are in a data center… right? They should have backup power to last for weeks, as should their upstream providers. Maybe your site runs out of someone’s closet ;-)
As of yet there has been no communication about the outage, and no announcements about it. It just happened and then unhappened.
I’m rethinking my loyalty to Dreamhost.
ah, here’s the story:

I’ve had terrible experiences with DreamHost (read about my experiences at Why DreamHost Sucks). I moved to with redundant data centers. When the L.A. blackout brought down DreamHost, my site didn’t experience any hiccups.
I just registered for Dreamhost about a couple hours back. Everything was fine for a few minutes. And BOOM. The site is down now. Was wondering if I made a stupid decision – Should I ask for a refund and quit right now.
Do you folks plan to stick with DreamHost?
