Well it's better than no traffic *

LA Observed has been down much of today due to a "bandwith issue" at the server end. In short, a rush of visitors this morning pushed us unexpectedly over the monthly limit. You'd think that adding another ten gigabytes would be simple to do quickly, but I found that's not the case. Took all day. That sound you hear is a blogger seething...

But anyway, it's good to know we've set a new record for traffic. Thanks for all the supportive messages pointing out that the site was unavailable. Nice to see how many of you have developed an LA Observed habit that needs a fix several times a day. Does that make me the pusher man?

* Thanks also to Mack Reed at LAVoice.org for keeping readers informed (again) of my technical difficulties. Whenever there's a future glitch here, I will let Mack know what's up.
