I'm switching web hosts ASAP. DH is just down too often.

Thanks Dreamhost for not helping me make my website a success!

And this is under General Troubleshooting because??

It would have at least made more sense as a full review, and posted under Curious about Dreamhost.

Almost everyone's been down for days as Dreamhost has had to fix multiple problems. Crap happens.

Yep, I *know* it must be frustrating! If there *is* an "upside" it might be that *many* sites buckle under the onslaught of a good Digg, so you are not alone and Diggers "get it" when there is a problem (evidenced by the digmirror link for your site.

Depending on the particular Digg or Slashdot intensity, your shared hosting account might not have survived even *without* the recent (horribly timed for you, I admit!) DH "brokedness".

Hey, things *do* break, and this "breakage" could not have come a a worse time for you given the Digg. But just remember that "the grass is always greener" in the neighbors yard and it is *very easy*, with webhosting in particular, to jump "out of the frying pan and into the fire".

BTW, I enjoyed your article and found a couple of gems in there I had not been aware of. Good Job!

My website is back up and working fine (though its a bit slow due to the Digg traffic).

Thanks Dreamhost!
