Ipower is dying.

My server company, Ipower, was down for 2 hours on Tuesday afternoon, and 14 hours from last night through this morning, so both my website and my blog were offline. What should I do?

This is the only server I’ve had, and they were recommended highly when I started. They’re still one of the biggest, if not the biggest out there. But when they migrated us to the “upgraded” servers this year, it got worse and worse, with outages and slow slow interface on vdeck. My free ftp is literally 10 times faster for moving files.

Now I’ll have to figure out how to move my domain, db, etc. Any suggestions on servers?

And if you think this was boring for you, think about me for a change.

Griffith Park is the 2nd biggest park in the US, and I'm just the person to investigate it! I've lived here for over 25 years. I was part of the PROS Committee in Griffith Park Neighborhood Council and am on the Housing & Tenants Rights Committee in the Silver Lake NC. I'm in the LA Press Club, and you can find some of my articles in the LA Weekly and the Los Feliz Ledger. I'm a cartoonist for Parade Magazine, The New Yorker, LA Times, Slate, & most major media. Questions and contacts welcome.
