Downtime: A big sorry to my followers and readers yesterday

Something happened with the entire platform this blog is hosted on, Tumblr, yet again.. Coal Speaker didn’t go away. At least not for more than four hours. But four hours is a lot of down time for a site.. 

It makes me wonder if Tumblr would be a lot more popular were it not for the breakdowns and meltdowns? I can’t even imagine having a business site making cash through credit card transactions or selling items, but having the prospect of a meltdown just when someone clicks ‘submit.’

For the new year, that will be one thing Tumblr needs to get better at. And once it does, it’s good to go.. everything else including ease and a solid base of users is in place. 

We all just need to know that when we tell someone to go to our site they won’t get a “sorry” message along with a note to donate to Japan..
