Apple World Today was offline for hours thanks to WordPress (new host, perhaps?)

I apologize to our readers and advertisers that “Apple World Today” has been offline for so long. You can thank the folks at WordPress, Inc., which hosts our site.

When the problem occurred, the support staff at WordPress said they were having troubles with their servers and that the issue would be resolved within 12-24 hours. Didn’t happen. Thirty hours later, I contacted them again. They said the issue would be resolved within two hours. I contacted WP tech support again, and they said it would be resolved today (“today” being Thursday). All this despite promises on their website of “one business day turnaround.”

I’m not a happy camper. If this happens again, I’ll be looking for another host for Apple World Today.
