Actually it’s not.

Like many people in Los Angeles and surrounding region, the power black out (due to some guy cutting the wrong line), was a bit of an inconvenience.

Who knew it’ll take down this site too? Appearantly Dreamhost’s data center is in the LA area. I’m not sure if they ever disclose the location. But with something like this, I guess it’s a bit obvious. Plus they mentioned it on their blog. So besides some of my sites going down, the SQL server for StopBuyingCrap also went down – along with the email servers.

It’s kind of weird. Not too long ago, a power outage means no TV to watch for a bit. Now, a power outage means websites taken down, email server takes a nap, and potential money goes bye-bye.

Funky.
