From web site launches to why you shouldn’t backup your PC to your digital hosting home.  This podcast has been in production for two weeks thanks to a slew of interruptions but I am happy to say finally the Web Hosting Show is back on the air.

Ever have one of those periods of time where it seems like nothing is going right?  Two weeks ago my main podcasting powerhouse of a machine was fried and I was still waiting to get it back from HP.  Last weekend, I had no power due to a line of wicked weather.  This week I am knocking on wood and tossing spill salt over my shoulder because thus far, nothing has interupted me.

Podcast Delay Due to Bad Weather

Big Storm 08

See what happens when you make fun of The Planet explosion?

Alright, I know this probably is not the good news you were looking forward to starting your Monday with, believe me – it wasn’t in my plans either.  Due to the Thursday night storms we had here in my area I had been knocked offline.  Just got power restored late yesterday afternoon.

The good news is all is fine here, just a few broken tree limbs and a big mess to clean up.  Bad news is that a new episode of the Web Hosting Show podcast may be delayed another week.  Last week the PC was being repaired, this week the power was out.  Now next week, even if there is an earthquake, flood or some other natural disaster I promise I’ll et something recorded for you all.

Thanks for your understanding, it is greatly appreciated!

Technical Difficulties

Jun/01 in All Posts, Backend Stuff

Well, I tried – but looks like episode 154 of the Web Hosting Show will be delayed again this week, due to the fact that my main production machine for the podcast has yet to come back from HP.  It should be coming in Monday or Tuesday, so if I get the time – perhaps I can get an episode recorded mid-week.

I apologize to anybody looking forward to downloading the next edition, but I can promise you that after I get my PC back from getting the power supply replaced we will be back up and running again.  While we are in this unexpected hiatus – would be a great time to go browse through the archives.

Also would like to open this post’s comments up to feedback about any and all aspects of the podcast to get some of your feedback. What you you like, what do you hate, what do you want to see more of?  If you have any thoughts, get to leaving a comment!
