Reason for downtime on TheNameIWantedWasTaken.com
Submitted by Jonathan Bloom on Sat, 03/03/2007 - 9:31am.The reason The Name I Wanted Was Taken and thus all email to me is down is due to the fact we have changed hosts to better suit our growing projects.
I enjoyed our old host at VeraPerez Network Services and recommend his hosting to anyone looking to create a website. His support was super fast (meaning within a few minutes if even that!) and his hosting is great.
The Name I Wanted Was Taken should be up by Wednesday, but if you need to email me then contact me at jbloom@project-c.inf0.
