Today’s error message:<\/p>\n

Due to the power outage earlier in the week, we appear a number of continued hiccups. [sic]<\/span> We’ve taken everything offline to properly rebuild and restore everything. I apologize and hope to have this resolved as soon as possible. Thank you for your continued patience.<\/p>\n

Updates will be posted on our blog<\/a> as we have them.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Now, as I said before<\/a>, I wish to imply absolutely no causative relationship between del.icio.us’ recent service problems and their new owner, Yahoo!. As del.icio.us themselves said when the power went out on December 14th: “we are obviously not yet on the Yahoo! infrastructure, and this is exactly the kind of stuff they can do a lot better for us (and you.)”<\/p>\n

I’d just like to restate my earlier observation: Yahoo! has bought del.icio.us, and del.icio.us now sucks. Leaping to conclusions is left as an exercise for the reader.<\/p>\n

I hope it gets better soon.<\/p>\n

(On a related note, we also had a power outage at home this morning, around 0700J. D said she heard some kind of noise outside, and then our three UPSes started beeping the running-on-battery-power symphony. After shutting everything down, we went outside to check the breakers, and our neighbor two houses down pointed out a red light on the transformer atop our nearest utility pole and said that it usually takes PG&E a while to get to it after a storm, since it only feeds five or six houses– not even the whole block. One of our cats spent about an hour exploring the unusually silent house.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
