Back to normal

There’s a saying that there’s only two kinds of people: those who have lost data and those who will.

I probably belong into both groups – not only have I lost truckloads of data in the past, but recent events show me that there will always be a slight chance to lose data, no matter how care- and thoughtful you are.

To make a long story short: my server crashed, the backup was corrupted, I had to have the data on the hard disks retrieved and the server reinstalled – all that while being head-down in the video2brain recording studio for my Android 2 Tutorial.

Alas, the task has now been fulfilled, the server is back online – there might be still a few rough edges, but it’s back on. *phew*
