Export is working again!
I was able to get the Fitness Log Export working. You may want to regularly export your data just in case the site crashes again before I can get it moved somewhere more reliable.
I tried to get a working development environment setup so I can try to address some of the other issues, but unfortunately it doesn’t look like I’m going to have much luck with that. At this point I’m...
Your feedback is welcome
I created a uservoice site for PhysicsDiet.com.
Looking for a new home for PhysicsDiet.com
As you guys are probably painful aware, the site is still not working quite right. I am going to try to resolve these errors, but it will take me a few days since I don’t use Windows or .NET anymore. So first I have to get a test environment set up.
I’m also looking for a new home for PhysicsDiet.com. That will be a longer term effort though. And I am not confident I will find a good...
I spoke too soon

I’m going to grab an off-site backup of the data ASAP. If you want a backup of your own data, you should be able to export your...
No news...
…Is probably not good news in this case. I still haven’t heard back from webhost4life. I assume that means they won’t have a newer copy of the database. I will post an update as soon as I hear from them.
Webhost4Life
Apparently I’m not the only one furious with webhost4life. And this doesn’t inspire confidence.
PhysicsDiet.com Data Loss
If you are reading this, then you already know that something went terribly wrong with PhysicsDiet.com this week. Yesterday I received an email that the site was down. I immediately contacted the host for the site, webhost4life. Apparently they moved the site from one set of servers to a new set of servers without notifying me.
They claim this happened on June 9, 2010, but that is obviously...
