The Backup Server is Active

January 29th, 2010

Your Twuns are now backed up on a nightly basis. To recap, the server hosting this site at Go Daddy crashed Tuesday morning taking with it all the data. It had to be rebuilt and backup’s brought back on-line. The problem, the last back that had been done was Dec 29th. I have learned. TwunLog is now backed up on a nightly basis to another server; something that should have been done from the beginning, the web designers equivalent to trying new sneakers on marathon day (I’m sure there’s a better analogy out there).

Happy Twunning!

The Server Bonked

January 28th, 2010

The server hosting this site “went out too fast”, it hit the wall this past Tuesday morning. The site has been restore to a backup taken Dec 29th, meaning lots of data was lost, about 200,000+ miles. I can only say that this site will rise from the ashes and finish the race strong. A backup strategy will be in place by early next week and this will not happen again.

In the mean time a possible workaround is in development, soon you’ll be able to poll your twitter feed to collect your past twuns, this could potentially bring all that lost data from the past month back to your log.
