Audiogon dead?

What's going on with Audiogon?

Is it down for good?

There are several sites that 'go down' from time to time that concern TH and other sites' members. Everyone needs to remember (including for TH itself):

Servers are not immortal.

Neither are hubs.

The internet is not made of tubes but it IS an extremely huge and hyperactive network that was based on a much less capable telecommunications network of about 20 years ago.

Server hardware breaks down and software develops glitches and they must be repaired and upgraded.

Foreign thugs and even GOVERNMENTS attack hosts now and then.

Occasionally you must remove a previous bookmark or cookie when the address/IP is changed.

I have found all the station site URLs down for a company and the parent company fine with no links. Could've been updating, could've been anything. Other sites in that area weren't affected.

Just go back later and check.

Sure. I just wanted to check if it was me or the site. I get a Network Solutions page for audiogon. Tried several different PCs and other sites work fine so I guess something is up with Audiogon.

It got them fine last night and I also used the link in the page he linked.

Look it up afresh and do no rely on bookmarks. Look it up from Google even. I had no trouble. Just sayin'

(Just looked and it's still there)

Loaded fine on my computer. Maybe they let their domain name expire because of non-pay of fees.

It's back up on my side too.
