Is Boing Boing broken?
Links October 30th, 2003 |As I start to get caught up with my e-mail and get back into the swing of things, I’ve been bouncing around my usual haunts. What in the world happened to Boing Boing? While the current page is certainly friendly and cheerful, it’s not quite the Boing Boing I’m familiar with.
Odd. I just hope everything’s okay over there.

Boing Boing has been out for at least a couple days. I’m disappointed the outage hasn’t got any news coverage. I guess Boing Boing’s popularity is not as hot as it was a month ago.

quote from MetaFilter: We’re having server problems and working on them — I hope to be up in a day or so again, but it’s exacerbated by my crazy travel schedule.
Please direct your friends to this note, and ask for their forebearance in sending email asking what’s up with Boing Boing. I’m getting several hundred of these a day, and it’s gotten so that answering those messages is actively interfering with my efforts to reestablish service.
In the meantime, we’re still blogging, and the mailblog still works:
