"This afternoon power outages in San Francisco have been affecting our offices and local co-location facilities causing widespread grid issues. Residents may be unable to login and experience other in-world issues."

Please tell me they have backup generators! Even the most mbasic of hostig companies use some form of UPS....

The good colo's have diesel generators that can run for 24 hours or more, depending on fuel. The one's SL uses are powered by hippos.

If my company was taken out by a power outage, we wouldn't be in business when it came back up. We have generators hooked into the main natural gas supply which can power us indefinitely (albeit with unnecessary equipment shut down) in the case of a sustained power outage.

A friend that works a couple of blocks down for the corporate office said there are a bunch of power outages up and down their area and that the power keeps going on and off. this might be part of the problem since it seems some people can get in and others can't.

SL Down
07-24-2007 14:54
LL didn't take SL down, there was a power outtage in San Franciso this afternoon and PGE does not know why. I would guess omething to do with the rains and earlier outtage maybe? Anyway, keep your fingers crossed the power co. manages to fix it. California sure has problems with electricity for some reason.

Interesting blog post

"This afternoon power outages in San Francisco have been affecting our offices and local co-location facilities causing widespread grid issues. Residents may be unable to login and experience other in-world issues.

We are also aware of delays in payments of group dividends and weekly stipends. While we believe most payments should be completed by this point, further research into the state of stipends and dividends has been delayed by the power outages. We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience!"

Translation: Linden Labs forgot to pay the electric bill.

I would say they need something else, but that would probably lower my maturity and age down to about 12 so I will refrain! :P

Maybe it would be a good idea to move to somewhere more reliable :rolleyes:
