The unexpected outage on the 4Syndication server that brought down the system on the morning of April 26th was finally resolved and the system was brought back online at 4:45 on April 27th.  The primary hard drive on the server had a fatal error.  However, the system adminstrators were able to recover the data and no blog posting or statistics were lost.

On the plus side we have been moved to a better server system with additional CPU speed, RAM, and hard drive space.  You should see a increase in performance in the 4Syndication system.
