My blog is up again after a three day downtime as a result of a server slowdown my blog is hosted into. It happened on the weekend and any of my complaints regarding the problem were answered Monday. My site was accessible according to them and I confirmed it afterward. However, they didn’t explicitly mention why my site went down. I’m pissed of with the way they handle customer inquires and complaints. Despite that, I planned to move my account to their new server since the old one my blog is hosted into is nearly obsolete as what they said on their website. I already had done a full backup of my blog and all the files uploaded therein. All I’m looking forward to is their immediate reply to my upgrade request. I hope that there will be at least 99.9 percent uptime on their new server. Their failure will result for my transfer to another web host.

For my readers, my apologies.

Update: I recieved a reply from one of my support tickets on why my blog went down last Friday.

I guess I reached 60% of what I’ve been aiming for the past month to fully resuscitate my blog after being idle for the past months. Everything were back to scratch and started as if I have opened a new blog. It feels like I’m back on the day when I first learned all about blogging. And then I realized I started to learn from it again. I know I had incurred a lot of mistakes maintaining my blog before but that does not hinder me to try again and pursue what I’ve started 2 years ago (2 years and a half maybe, I can’t remember.)

Wee! I finally met the bloggers behind the famous blogs in the Philippine blogosphere. It was my first time to attend this kind of event where I mingled with fellow bloggers that I’ve known online. It wasn’t easy to fit in at first, but on the long run I get the hang of it as I introduced myself to new faces.
The event was held in Taste Asia located at the north wing of the SM Mall of Asia. I was invited days before the event by Lalon and later agreed to come. I ask for Ms. Shari to put me on the list so I can attend the said event. Yesterday July 3, I went to Glorietta to watch Transformers movie before going to the event. “Tutal, I’ll be going out naman, so why not watch a movie first before going to the event. I’ll be meeting also 2 of my prex’s after the movie so I can hand over the mp3 CD I burned for them. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to finish the movie because heck it was long… 2 hours and 30 minutes and that time I need to meet my friends at Food choices in G4. We parted ways and me rode a bus going to MoA.
