Blog blackout

By Rich Hammond on October 8, 2007 7:22 PM | Permalink | Comments (4) |

Just to let everyone know, the Daily News blogs are scheduled to go dark at 9 p.m. for a software upgrade. It's supposed to last four hours, but we'll see...

I'm waiting to see if the upgrade will be the answer for people who still can't view the site. I hope so, but I fear that has more to do with incompetence than upgrading.

Still can't view the site. Have sent my IP via email to Rich twice, apparently that didn't work. Hope you can work something out so we can access this great blog freely in Europe (am using us proxy to post this message)

I also sent my ip address to Rich but neither that nor the update of the site made any difference. Viewing the site from work only (luckily I work at an American company so I have an American ip range here).

I hope you find a solution for us europeans soon, Rich :(
