Harvard Blog Server Downtime

I wasn’t able to get to this blog last night. In fact, I usually have a difficult time getting to it between 11 pm and 12 am, when I usually blog. (So why do I blog then? I don’t know other than that’s when my crowded schedule lets up enough for me to think.) The stats indicate the server was down between 8 pm last night and 8 am this morning. There has been a lot of downtime lately, though not usually for so long. Some aggregators drop feeds when they can’t get to a server for a certain amount of time. If you don’t get this post in your aggregator, perhaps you should verify that you’re still subscribed to this blog’s feed. (That’s almost like saying “Raise your hand if you aren’t here,” but not quite.)

I appreciate your patience during these outages. I have faith that the server administrators will work on the problem.

Addendum: If the server’s down and you’re really desperate to get to the content on this blog, you might be able to find it through the mirror on Frassle or by searching for certain posts in Feedster. Both places have content back to October 2003.
