Web Experts Not Always to Blame. Sometimes it's God.

[tzikeh]

While putting up our Wild Chicago website for the weekend show, I discover one of the links provided by the content producer doesn't work. My knee-jerk reaction is, of course, "%(#&@ Web Experts". So, thinking I have to do their job for them again, I figure I'll find out what the right web address is. Web searches bring me nothing but two pages with links to the same, non-existent dns. I think, they must have changed recently - and I am slightly less pissed at the Web Experts. I mean, anyone can get outdated information. They should have checked it, but okay.

So I phone them up.

"Hi, I can't get to your website; do I have the wrong URL?"

"Oh, dude, hey, no - the castle got hit by lightning last night, you know? So, all of the computers in the castle are down right now."

That's not a sentence you often hear.
