@papundits -- we did post here as soon as possible once we were aware of the issues.

"It's 4.15PM Sunday here, which is 2.15AM Sunday where you are... I thought it might be my computer settings, so I tried everything there as well. Still nothing... Hope it's a only minor thing, and they haven't been hacked or the like."

It'd be great if you could post a short note here, or somewhere else easy to find, as soon as you are aware of problems even if it's the wee hours of the morning.

That would help people like Tony and even 'night-owls' here in the USA!

Thanks for your consideration on this matter.
Best Regards,
Ed

FNO, I'll be hitting that Save Draft button more often, that's for sure!

Apparently autosave was not working during that time. The last 5 revision show a time of about 3 hours after I did the work. Is there a place on my computer where the lost work could be found, like cache.I had activated "gears" a couple of days ago. Is that helpful in any way?

At this time everything should be back to normal, if you have any issues with your blog or images loading please contact support and we will be happy to help.

Now a bit of information on what happened:

There was about an hour or so of unavailability or slowness for all blogs hosted on WordPress.com. The problem started at approximately 1:05AM EDT this morning when we were alerted to a network-wide outage affecting all of our servers (approximately 500) in a facility in Dallas, Texas. We immediately began troubleshooting the issue with our hosting partner in that facility. Unfortunately, it took them longer then expected and longer than we would have liked to resolve the issue and bring the network back online. The total length of the network outage was about 1 hour 45 min, but the fact that we host WordPress.com in multiple datacenters, allowed us to reroute traffic and minimize the downtime. Yes, we know an hour is a long time and too long for us, so we are working with our hosting partners to see what we can do to prevent this from happening in the future. We are also looking at ways to make our failover process quicker in the event this happens again. We rely on this Dallas facility for a lot of things and 500 servers is a lot of hardware to lose at once, but I am confident that we can improve here to reduce the impact in the future.

Thanks for your understanding and I apologize for the downtime.

Barry

2) if the domain is purchased from an external agency, then sure. If you purchase the domain from WP.com, then no

1) See above.

(http://www.kansir.com).
I am tired for maintain it, i am not familiar with code. I decide to transfer my blog to wordpress.com.
I already setup my blog here, and transfer all the content. (http://kansir.wordpress.com). Now i want to use my own domain name with this wordpress blog. but my web hosting is sucks, it don't allow me to edit domain name's DNS.

Here is my question :
1. Should i transfer my domain name to wordpress or other domain registrar(Any suggestion?), which is better?
2. I want my domain name has private data in whois database, it seems that wordpress can't do this. right?
3. I have two e-mail using with my domain. Can i keep this if i transfer my domain to wordpress?

Is there any other things i should notice?

Thanks for giving any suggestion.
