In the year 2045

People have asked me why I chose WordPress to host our site.
I love WP’s stability!

wp dashboard screen cap

That’s right folks, in the year 2045, there will be a 30 minute window where I won’t be able to access my account. Short notice indeed!  

This is an actual screen capture of a notice on my account. 
For those with bad eyes, it says:

Maintenance notice: Sorry for the short notice. 13742 days from now, your dashboard will be temporarily unavailable for about 30 minutes while we perform database maintenance. Your blog will still be readable and your stats will keep counting.

While I’m at it, I capp’d this from google the other day…

I got a terrible tummy ache after having a chili dog, and became curious if my chili was on the recall list. It was. If I choose to sue, I’ll need a lawyer WHO CAN SPELL SAUCE CORRECTLY!

And further what’s up with the “0.19 seconds” ? I assume its the time it took google to complete my search. Does anyone need that information?

  1. you don’t need a midol - I’ve always wondered why the hell they put those posted times and queries too. Are they racing Yahoo! and MSN for pinks or something?

    You gotta’ love WP for giving you a heads up decades in advanced while friggin’ blogger needs to update their POS every other week. What’s the deal? Regret the purchase, Sergey and Larry?

  2. Ha! According to Technorati, WordPress put this post on the news front page yesterday. I’m proud of them for having a sense of humor.

  3. What other media outlet would take it on the chin like that? WordPress is awe-inspiring!

  4. 30 minutes of downtime in 13742 days is simply unacceptable; I’d start the hunt for a back-up pronto.
