Well, if you're seeing this, you know that the site that normally serves The Starkcast is toast! This is a very good lesson for all: use Feedburner or a similar service! My server blew up and may have taken the hard drives with it. But because I use Feedburner, I was able to resurrect my show by redirecting the RSS feed to Libsyn, and in a matter of a few hours I was back up and running and iTunes could see the new feed no problem. I also recommend GoDaddy as your domain registrar. I logged in, changed the domains to be parked at GoDaddy's servers, then set them to redirect here to my libsyn account. So in 24 hours or so when the DNS propagates, I'll be back up with the domain name as well. Last recommendation: Gmail for your email. That I never lost thanks to Gmail. Shoot me a line if you happen to need a gmail invite, I'm starkcast at gmail dot com. For a regular blog and various web projects, the freedom of having your own server is awesome...but for a podcast? I think it's better to rely on services you can redirect and shift around behind the scenes just in case there's a problem. I should also add this: Thank you, Libsyn. You've saved my show. You can keep up with my nightmare here, and if you are inclined to help a podcaster out...feel free.

Like a freshly killed deer, this cute and furry show lies before you, ready for the gutting. TOPICS - Featured in iTunes Podfinder!
