Technical problems continue to afflict our blogs. Those of you who are subscribers had many of your e-mail alerts bounced back to us last weekend. Also, *new* photos cannot be uploaded -- only ones that have been posted on the blog in days of yore. Hence, no photographs of the late Shadow, nor of Newt Gingrich's gavel, never mind something really important like the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino fire.

As a consequence, we're looking at moving to a different software (suggestions are appreciated). Hopefully, all of the 1,500+ existing S&G entries will make the transfer ... keep your fingers crossed. Maybe this will be the end of the Comment-Eating Server, too. We can only hope.

Not sure what you use but it does seem to be down constantly.

I've used Movable Type and 5 years and thousands of entries and comments later, I still really like it.

Movable Type and WordPress are by far the most popular Open Source options.

I've heard great things about squarespace.com.

# Posted By Barry | 9/14/09 1:39 PM

Squarespace is a nice platform but I assume LVA wants to host / control their own content and not farm it out.

# Posted By Hunter | 9/14/09 5:46 PM

You assume correctly, sir. And congratulations on the great writeup you got in LV Weekly. It happened, unfortunately, during our "no links" period.

David,
Thanks for the link to HUNTER. I followed it to a nice story from last year about Binion's (nee Horseshoe) downtown. I bookmarked www.ratevegas.com/blog/.
