for those who are wondering the lacks of updates recently, this little news flash.
on Monday, the infosthetics website was suddenly turned offline by my Web Host due to a too high CPU load. several services were already crippled inexplicably in the weeks before (e.g. suggestion box, sparklines graphs). less than 12 hours later, infosthetics' MB laptop hard disk died beyond repair, so that several weeks of work are completely lost. both occurrences brought this blog to a sudden meltdown.
please be patient...

That sucks mate. May the force deliver you a speedy recovery.
Ouch, sorry to hear.
that's horrible. it's the curse of popularity.
what host are (were) you using?
All comes to those who wait..............................................................................................................................................................................
nathan: am using 1and1 web hosting (now put on 'auxiliary' server).
have major difficulties putting it on another host though: I cannot find any longer this version of Movable Type, and just porting it over, or upgrading, seems to break the layout.
Power through it
Good luck
We eagerly await return to awesomeness
I really like your site, I hope your 'luck' improves!
good luck. looking forward to future postings. (of course.)
Hope you'll recover it! Good luck!
Good luck and godspeed!
That sucks! Sorry to hear that. I just received the feed from march 4 in my mailbox and I was puzzled, now I know what's going on.
Sending good vibes from Barcelona...
Hi, keep the faith man, the information you share is valuable and i'm grateful that you're feed is available.
As a developer, you provide insight to me as to how design-think should take place and what to look for.
All the best man.
can we help with sponsorship in some way? i mean donations for an upgrade in services/hardware?

If you're looking for a more reliable host, I've used Pair Networks -- www.pair.com -- for nine years without any major service disruptions. Their prices are quite reasonable.
I absolutely love your blog. Please try not to let these calamaties discourage you -- your relentless effort and the resource you're building is amazing. I'm sure you'll be back on track and able to forget about this trouble soon.
All the best!
I am sorry to hear this. Always enjoy your findings. Take your time to recover from the bad surprise. And please start again!
Greetings from Vienna (Austria)
Good luck! I miss my daily infosthetics shot and are close to going into rehab ;-)
This is one of my absolute favourite blogs. Don't let it get anywhere near to dying, it would leave a huge hole in the online world of information design resources. Cheers from Vienna, Austria once again!
