For the second year on the trot, my hosting company (www.interland.com) decided to perform some clean up of their servers just before xmas, and in doing so they killed my sites (nice xmas pressie Interland!). Last year they took the server off-line completely and it took a week to get it back up, this year they somehow removed .net so that none of my asp.net sites worked. After speaking to them, I was assured that my issue was "in the queue" but they had no idea how long it would take. A week later after still nothing was done, I cancelled my account. This from the "#1 provider of Web Hosting Services for small and medium-size businesses". If you are considering hosting with them, then I hope you have better fortune than I!
However I have taken the opportunity to redesign the www.bbits.co.uk web site - and this will be live this week. In the meantime you have this lovely blog to read. Every cloud...
