You can't keep a good web host down

If you want to know what's really happening in New Orleans from the perspective of folks on the ground (or 27 stories up, as it were), Wired had a story yesterday about a group of employees of Zipa who are holed up in their data center. They have been blogging the tragedy as it has unfurled since right after Katrina hit. It's unbelievable stuff.

That's the data center *I* want to be using.

Those folks have been amazing.

If you don't see a way to enter a comment, it's not because I don't love you. It's because they have been set to auto-close after 5 days.

Thank you, comment spammers. Thank you to hell.
