Live Journal Blogs Knocked Offline

 

Because of a power outage, Six Apart Ltd. saw millions of its Live Journal blogs be knocked offline. Over 100 Internap data center servers were affected when the power went out Friday. 5.6 million blogs were affected.

The company is purchasing rack-mount UPS units so such failures never happen again. SixApart Ltd. only acquired LiveJournal less than 2 weeks before the outage happened. In 2002, hackers managed to shut down Blogger for a few hours.

http://livejournal.com/ contains updates on the company's efforts to restore service. It appears many blogs are now functional.

  How did I do that?  
 My comment was "AS if!". (As if some one really cares about this blogger site.)
