I think this is the fourth or fifth time I've followed a link on HN to his site and it wouldn't load. I've commented before about this and not trying to dogpile again, but this is frustrating because he usually does have something interesting to say..

Sorry for the outage. The site is back up now. Fingers crossed, praise Murphy. :-)

Thanks for the update. I'd be curious to learn more about your setup. I guess OPML Editor is the framework generating your pages; but what's your web server, and how does OPML Editor tie into it?

I use Apache to serve the static content.

The reason you got the error message from the OPML Editor is that it was running on port 80 while Apache was offline. As soon as Apache was running, it reverted to its normal non-80 port.

Thanks for clarifying. So OPML Editor generates the static content beforehand and then Apache serves it?
