Spoke too soon 1and1 did go down for me

Yeah I spoke too soon.

Just as I'm in the middle of an important meeting where somebody wants to see my newly launched site (even though its just in beta), I go to the site and find it down...

I did some troubleshooting for a minute and discovered that it was likely a DNS issue at 1and1.

How embarassing... Luckily by the end of the meeting I encouraged us to look at the site again... and it was back up and running.

Good thing it wasn't a sales meeting!!! I still wouldn't have been that pissed off - after all shit happens... and I am paying $0 for what has been thusfar good hosting.

If the problem persists though, 1and1 will lose my support...
