Thanks, connie.
Unrelatedly, we just bought the domain buffistas.info. My thought is that it can be like status.livejournal.org -- a separately hosted site that can, if we're down, provide information on our imminent upness. That would involve a further expense, of an ultra-cheap hosting account somewhere not iStrata, as a next step.
Not that we ever go down, or anything.

Hey, Jesse -- maybe we can just use Domain Discover's one page website option -- it
looks
free -- is it something I can have access to without having the general registrar login?
If you want a free place to point a status page, I can set that up for you on our server.

It is free, as a website-for-losers. You do have to log into the main account, and then they have a little form to fill out -- you can have one image file and some text, and then they have templates to pick from. I can add the stuff in, if you want to send it to me, or we can do something else that you'll have direct access to. Hmm.

That would put an extra step in if something happened to b.org -- if Kristen can set me up with a few K of space, maybe we'll point that way instead.
Yeah, that sounds like it would be easier for you to keep. Unless you want the domaindiscover login.
ita, I just sent you over the account info. Let me know if you need anything else.
Oh, bless, Kristen. I'm thinking one page, one graphic, or just a redirect to buffistas.org if everything's okay.
Or maybe it shouldn't automatically redirect -- just say something like "We think we're up..." with a link?
"As far as we know, all's well at buffistas.org..."
