Email follies

[rsc]

Some of you may have heard that the panix.com domain name was hijacked over the weekend. I don't understand the technical details of how this was done, or all its consequences, but what I do know is that mail sent to me at my normal address probably won't arrive. An alternative domain has been established, so if you need to send me email about something, use .net instead of .com until further notice.

Folks at Panix are, from what I understand, working around the clock to get the problem resolved.

This has just not been a good weekend for internet stuff, has it? Late Friday afternoon I tried to check my mail from my cellphone. Nothing. Got home and no joy on this computer either. Then I went to check LJ. Nothing. WTF??!! I couldn't ping much of anything. I seriously thought for a minute that the end of the world had come the internet had died.
