I was having some trouble this morning with images that I had uploaded to the the servers at Radio Userland my old hosting service for Coyote Gulch. After checking in the the folks at Userland I found this announcement.
UserLand has decided to close the Radio UserLand and Salon Radio services as of December 31, 2009.
Update: Due to server outages in late November and early December, the Radio UserLand and Salon Radio services will remain available until January 31, 2010.
You can continue to use your Radio weblog hosted with UserLand until the end of the year.
If you plan on continuing to use Radio to publish your blog, we would recommend that you look for an alternative web host if your weblog is being published to a UserLand server. You can use the FTP option [1] in Radio to publish to your own server.
The closure of Radio will also mean that the UserLand-hosted comments, trackbacks and stats tracking will be unavailable after the shutdown date.
If you have any questions, please send them to customerservice@userland.com
UserLand Software
All of Coyote Gulch’s content up until February 2009 is hosted there. Links to old articles and graphics will now be broken. ARGHHHH! (It makes me scream). There is a chance that I will be able to re-publish all the articles to another server but I have low confidence in Userland’s software. I apologize to all of you readers that still navigated to the old blog from time to time. I planned to pay my fees each year and hoped that Userland Software would at least keep everything on line in perpetuity even if they didn’t allow new posting. That doesn’t seem to be the case.
