SquareSpace - Hurricane Sandy Impact
in Weather
My website host, SquareSpace, is located in Manhattan. They experienced flooding and are operating on generators at the moment. They may be forced to shut down until systems can be restored. They have done a terrific job, under trying circumstances. They have a crew running up and down the stairs with gasoline for the generator! Can you imagine?
If the site goes down, I will be back!
