My Blog was down, Like Whoa.
My old host accidentally deleted my account and the blog only survived by luck, not my backup plan. Moved hosts and learned the lesson the hard way.
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.
