Bye-bye .us0

2 July, 2007 (22:18) | Open World, Work | By: Al

Well, .us0 (Open World’s main hosting colo) is no more. Verizon have, at my request, turned off the power bars.

Tomorrow I get to gut .uk1, the main UK colocation which holds internal and extranet servers.

I prefer building systems…

Does this mean you are visiting Goswell Road? Beer, or are you travelling by car?

I am in a van. I have to clear the entire colo by myself, which will be fun! :( I doubt I’ll have time to do anything sadly, but new contract is with a London based company, so will be down in London a few times soon so beer then?

Do you at least get to keep bits of machinery?

How long you think you have left? Plans for post-OW?

Friday is my last day. I start contracting on Monday! I have 6months or work, 20hr/week guaranteed, which pays the bills. There are a couple of things I’m playing with which may or may not come off, but mainly I’m thinking I’ll take life easy for a month :)
