I was on quite late on Tuesday evening, checking my spreadsheets of who had joined “A Room with a View” and what the choices were (Bugger!). Been down since early morning (07:00) today (yesterday since I didn’t click the submit button in time)

It’s not looking good at the moment.

Nothing definite as yet, but SocialGo, the Cloud, YWP all inaccessible right now

If I was Harry, I’d be taking a good look at my direct debits and standing orders right now 🙁

What have I missed??

Ah, I wondered – not been able to get onto Cloud for a couple of days, but haven’t been online much.
-
I haven’t been able to get onto the cloud since yesterday morning.
-
I could access it yesterday but today- nada

Yikes, Debi – you don’t have a course running do you? Keeping fingers crossed…

Oh lordy, good point. Hope it comes back

Somewhere else is also down – as is the SocialGo.com site and also their ‘cache’ server. It’s not looking good.
-
I have a bad feeling about this
-
(Not especially, it’s just that ever since watching Star Wars I take every opportunity to say that. See also ‘watch your mouth kid, or you’ll find yourself floating home.’ Most of all, I wanted to shoot a radio and say ‘boring conversation anyway’.

Having just kicked off a competition on the Cloud – and the Cloud currently lying on its back contemplating its maker, I hope this isn’t the only place (apart from the Townhouse, obviously)

Yes, it disappeared earlier this morning. Same happened yesterday but it came back. Rather a long break today 🙁
-
Knowing little about how these things work, it feels as though we’re in a bit of a death spiral now, but for all I know it will continue to limp on indefinitely

You’re a total legend for starting a new comp. No idea what lies in wait for the Cloud. Sigh.

Hmm – my experience is similar although heavy on the ‘how the hell did I miss THAT!’

And now it’s back up, which (I think) means my guess about SocialGo is probably close to the truth. They haven’t shut down, but they aren’t bothering to support their side of the operation.

Interesting. Looks as though SocialGO’s main server for cached files, images, style-sheets (that define the look and layout) is down this morning. The Cloud will look fine if you haven’t cleared your browser cache lately or terrible if you have, or it’s of limited size and the Cloud stuff has been pushed out.

I think they more or less admitted this to Stephen Marks.
-
It’ll be a shame if it goes down before the comp gets off the ground. Is it worth setting up an emergency contact list? For those that are happy to, I mean?
-
I think it is Sea

Another excellent blog, Richard. You got me to invest my beer-tokens in Keith Roberts and now it looks like I’ll be blowing the dust off my wallet for James Cabell.

Not ‘Dense’ then?
Denizens – I like. And @sandradavies – just look at the folks already here. Definitely not dense in any way, shape or form! 😉
Dentists? Maybe not …
Sorry Squidge – I’m editing :-(, but a quick look at the OED suggests ‘dendrite’ -‘crystalline growth , or ‘denatant’ – the migration of fish. I rather like denominator …
