Have you heard of Dreamhost? It's a company offering inexpensive web hosting options. A lot of organizations use Dreamhost to host their websites and provide email services, among other things. This website, too, is hosted by them. Unfortunately, their service record is far from good, but they've usually kept everyone up to date whenever there were problems.

Guess what? They aren't doing that right now, and customers are angry. And they're talking.

The Twitter meetup I planned, #APtweetup, went absolutely nowhere. Little buzz, and no attendees. Little surprise there, and a reminder that I shouldn't be allowed to organize things on my own. (It's been a while since I gave up on TIGC, after the other organizers all abandoned the effort.) I got some good ideas on why it was such a flop, though.
