Many people have asked about the new data center since we moved in August. I finally got around to taking some pics for those geeks out there who have been asking, "What does it look like?" So, for those of you who find boring data center pics interesting, or just wonder where exactly your website files live when they're in our care, here ya go.

Interior design accolades we will not win, but nonetheless, here are your pics.

This isn't a picture of the data center, per se, but people often ask about our uptime. Our goal is 99.99%, which allows us time to reboot servers, firewalls, routers and other equipment at least once a month when we apply security, firmware or other updates.
