Hey there,
The host did not detect any server connectivity issues today, and did not locate any log information that would indicate complications on their side. It is suspected that a DNS issue occurred, which typically means that the servers responsible for converting your bring4th.org request into an IP address, failed.
Apparently this happens from time to time since we are not fortunate enough to sit on top of the Internet backbone. We tend to have multiple "hops" leading us from the Internet to the site itself, so various points of failure can emerge.
I do apologize for the inconvenience! If we could solve the issue, we would, but for now we are going with the flow of the web host.
If anyone wants to sit Bring4th on top of an OC-32 pipe, e-mail me! ;-)
Oh, that sounds so nerdy. It's ok if confusion overwhelmed any laughter you may have felt inclined to give!
