The Traffic Jam (and the results of the last caption contest) will be out this evening. I’ve got another project I’m working on that will distract me for a couple hours at least.

The HostingMatters blogs, including mine, were intermittently unavailable for much of the morning owing to an announced move of their equipment into a new cage. I had misread their message– thinking that the move was to occur at 10 p.m. rather than 10 a.m.–since it never occured to me they’d intentionally shut down during the day. In any event, the downtime was supposed to be less than 20 minutes.

Interesting. Mine was down for quite a while–as was InstaPundit and PoliBlog, the ones I usually check to see if it’s a systemwide issue. And, yes, I got the announcements but just somehow read them as happening at 10 pm rather than 10 am.
While a planned shutdown during a time when most people are likely to be awake is mildly annoying, I was just posting an explanation for why the site was down.

I’m at the new job today and am going to be tied up with lots of administrative tasks all day. I also haven’t set up my OTB pop account on the new machine, so I won’t be responding to mail until this evening.

Last time I lost a job it was 9 months of cold baked beans before the new one. You must have, like, qualifications and stuff.
