15 March 2007	Ah; what a week - this new look was supposed to be up by 4th March itself but got delayed due to server issues - a virus in the server it seems and all my pages were kabooom...it's good I don't rely on the server backups.

25 Jan 2007	Verdict in; databases are gone! No restoration and so that's the end of my anxious wait! Moral of the story: Always back up data yourself.
21 Jan 2007	I was in depression for the past few days since my database tables haven't yet been restored; ah; all my wonderful blogs lost and no backup (maybe some people are happy that it's gone!). The server guys say they'll try to get it back; let's hope they do; in the meantime I am looking at redesigning things over here.
17 Jan 2007	I learnt my lesson "never ever forget to keep a backup of your work; no matter how small it may be"; the blog is down because the databases have gone empty because of server crashing down - let's see if I the hosting provider can recover the lost data; damn - I should've taken my own backup.
