Freakin’ VizaWeb. As you can tell (if you remembered this URL as the Literal Barrage backup), Literal Barrage is currently down. Those keyboard-pounding simians over at VizaWeb can’t seem to be bothered to check the status of the mysql daemon and so, for the time being, I’m left siteless.
Gahhhh.
I plan on grabbing a mysql dump of all my content ASAP and then seeing about moving the site to Dreamhost or some other reliable web host. These outtages are unacceptable regardless of who I am or how much I’m paying for hosting. I’m furious and I don’t care if VizaWeb finds out about it.

I don’t know anything about dreamhost, but I know that Tom Sherman at http://underscorebleach.net/jotsheet/ had some posts about getting discounts from them. A quick scan may be worth your while.
