Today I noticed that since yesterday “Table ‘./oreneta_kalebeul/wp_posts’ is marked as crashed and last (automatic?) repair failed”, which means that about 40MB of halfwit rants and raves had gone to Sabadell.
I back this blog up like once every 15 years, so I assumed that was that – it’s my responsibility. But Gordan @ ASmallOrange.com got it back for me. Now wasn’t that nice?!
(I had some quite good experiences years back with WebFusion, which became frighteningly bad as first Pipex and then HostEurope gulped, then came a Spanish host which started small and good and became larger and awful, but I’m very happy where I am now. And they’re American, so whatever crap I spout is that teeny bit safer from stoopid European judges.)
Update: ASmallOrange later became disastrous.
