Downtime sucks, but it sort of reminded you how good it has been. HostingFu, along with about a dozen other sites hosted on this SliceHost VPS, were down between 8pm and 10pm AEST last night, when traffic is about the busiest from Australia. No good. Maybe that is one reason for hosting locally in Australia so the datacentre won’t schedule network maintenance at inconvenient time. Then I feel sorry for the now gang-of-four at SliceHost as the network dropped out at 4AM in the morning, CST time!
