Sorry about that - 1and1 is totally unreliable as a host, and is collapsing under the HN effect.

Reload it a couple of times and it should work.

If a server cannot handle the "HN effect", you should probably host nothing there. Unless of course it's not only the server's fault ;)

I'm thinking Apache with KeepAlive turned on: it kills more blogs than cancer!

That's probably another lesson I should add to the post: Never use 1and1 as your host.

Ouch.. it was looking good and I was considering it for my own startup thingie :)

Any good and cheap Microsoft hosting you can recommend? (as in the 5 to 10 dollar a month range)?

I just got it installed and activated, and deactivated most plug-ins on the blog and website. Hopefully that will solve it.
