Financial Blogs run by Typepad

Last week, I noticed that some financial blogs that I visit daily were 1 week out of date, specifically The Kirk Report.   I thought it was just an isolated case until I noticed several others with the same issue.  It turns out that their provider, Typepad, which provides blog hosting for a good percentage of blogger sites was suffering a major outage.  This outage lasted about 16 hours. 

I’m happy to say that I have my own dedicated server and manage, maintain, and backup the site and databases daily.   Read "Popular blog site back up after outage."  The disturbing part of all of this is that they didn’t have 2 days worth of blog data backed up.
