Thanks for your patience if you couldn't get through to us earlier this evening. The network on which this blog resides was the victim of a DDOS attack.

Yep, I'm sure the folks who run the datacenter will be figuring it all out. Just glad we're back.

You mess with Mayor Creepy's Twitter page you pay the price.

That was my first thought, but my excellent IT expert assures me that I'm not that important.

LOL Jack. And creepy's group of adolescent social netwonks would not have a clue as to how to pull a DDOS off. On the other hand since Jake Ortman hosts several sites I wonder what one was the target. Keep in mind they may not be so special ether, just as a phone miss dial, one digit off on an IP address can totally miss your target.

Have you considered using some sort of content distribution network to avoid downtime?
