Some weird music.
February 23rd, 2009
Whilst working some great music is always needed. It can really help with motivation during those late night emergencies. I’m sure most of of you have not been able to avoid Kid Cudi’s track “day & night”, but if you haven’t be sure to check it out and also the many remixes that are doing the round http://www.myspace.com/kidcudi
But aside from that another tune that really caught my eye was a new one from Tiga. Tiga recorded the classic “Sunglasses at night”. His latest record has slightly creepy feel to it much like the last one but has a really punchy sound to it…I think it will be something we will definitely be hearing more of. http://www.myspace.com/officialtiga
My last selection its Flo Rida’s somewhat filthy remix of “You Spin me round (like a record baby)” I find this song whilst undeniably terrible techniqually, immensely amusing, I love it

saidhost fall victim to the credit crunch
December 11th, 2008
One of our many server providers, saidhost has gone under without any prior warning. We quite literally got a message the server was down from our server monitoring people so we attempted to login to the server but it was inaccessible. We then tried to file a ticket and contact the company but their website had disappeared. Their phone had also been disconnected. A quick google search revealed the true story.
The company had gone bankrupt, but instead of warning its customers and allowing them time to move data and handle migrations, they had simply gone under, even taking our payment for December’s services.
Fortunately because we take daily backups, we were able to restore all of our clients data and migrate them to another server. We apologise for any inconvenience this has caused.
For a more conversation and discussion, and incidentally where I found out about this initially check this thread out http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=732244
