moving bananeira
ugh. my hosting company pixiehost decided to disappear so i will be moving bananeira.com soon. they really started doing weird things end of last year, servers going down, helpdesk not available, and in the users forum a lot of people said they were leaving. this week i could not access my mail and my site for days and since pixiehost.com expired, i figured all was lost.
i haven't been able to access bananeira.com from my home connection for a long time now and i have had to use alternative connections to update my site, how annoying is that?
the crazy thing is, i registered bananeira.com with pixiedomain.comwhich used to be part of pixiehost. sometime last year we all received mails saying pixiedomain will cease to exist, and all domreg-related stuff will go through pixiehost. now they are back online (with a completely different look); however i cannot login with the username and password they originally gave me.
which i translated into: the new pixiedomain is completely new and has nothing to do with pixiehost. however, i sent an email anyway to them and their email address was directed to a pixiehost.com address. and the email didn't even work, my message was bounced back.
how dodgy is that? long story short, i don't know how to transfer bananeira.com. it's really annoying as bananeira has become my identity in the last 2 years.
so yeah, this may well be my last post here. i'm thinking of going with these guysand i am also looking for a new domain name. any suggestions?
other things that made this not my week: someone illegally used my credit card in the UK. the card has been blocked since and mastercard says i'm covered by their program so probably no money will get taken out of my account. that remains to be seen.
plus i caught a virus from robert when he was ill last week, and i ended up with the same illness for a few days. the day i returned to work, everyone was on my back; i had six work meetings in one day! *mampus kan, susah emang jadi orang penting, huehehehe*
anyway, *belanda sedang maha indah* and ben is visiting from london so we are going for drinks and dinner in the sun. yay! have a good weekend everyone!

hi miss yasmina,
salam kenal:)
correct me if i'm wrong: pixiehost belongs to an indonesian based in LA. i used them for a project i did in the past. they're ok, not great.
i'm using http://icdsoft.com/
their technical support is awesome, always answer my ticket within 3 minutes.
what about missyasmina.com?

I wish I could help you out more, but I do wish you luck with finding a new place to host your blog! I agree with novs, miss_yasmina could be good.
Welcome back too! Hope your week is better!
