TypePad Outage, Back Up
Six Apart has reported some downtime to their TypePad service, including the TypeKey, and also to the Vox blogging service. The downtime was reported at 11:28 PM PDT, and all the services seems to be back up at 12:08 AM PDT. The status page reports:
Midnight: A bad power supply in one of our core routers is preventing some TypePad blogs from displaying. We are onsite working to resolve the problem.
Everything should be working now. Did the outage affect you?
Thord Daniel Hedengren is a designer, writer, and blogger, and also the former editor of The Blog Herald. He used to be a hotshot in the gaming industry in Sweden, but sold everything and went International. Most recently he wrote a book called Smashing WordPress: Beyond the Blog, and does loads of kickass design.
Nope, because Typepad sucks and I’d never use it.
Thanks for the post, Thord. We dislike unplanned downtime as much as anyone, but thanks to our amazing ops team, we were able to solve the problem quickly.
