Some of you might have noticed that this blog was unavailable for a few hours on Tuesday July 23rd. There was a power outage at the Typepad datacenter (actually a big chunk of San Francisco was out of power). None the CollabNet-run servers were affected (they are elsewhere and on back-up power).

At the time of this writing, this is the latest info from Typepad (5.23pm):

"We are now bringing the application back online. You may experience intermittent performance while we restore the application. Readers may experience issues commenting."

Sorry for the inconvenience.
