Website Downtime
Saturday, August 8, 2009
Some of you may have noticed that Zed Said Studio was down for a few days. This was due to my DSL router dying, and me franticly driving around Napa, CA trying to find another to replace it. Long story short, I ordered one from Amazon.com and finally got it set up and Zed Said is back up and running.
I would say that this is definitely one of the issues of running a website from your home. An unreliable connection is not something that I love to deal with. But, it saves me money each month as hosting Matrix elsewhere would cost me at least $20/month.
Thanks for checking back, I will have some new interesting blog posts up ASAP.

@ Robin - Yes, it is very nice to have a Matrix server at home. It is actually very easy, you can even get it working with a dynamic IP. My DSL IP really does not change that much, so it is not a big deal. Just find an old PC or Mac and you can build your own Linux server at home to host Matrix.

Good to see your site is back! How sweet it is to have your own Matrix server in house and do whatever you want!
