Leading podcasting site, The Podcast Network’s, server suffered a “massive technical failure” yesterday and according to CEO Cameron Reilly, the media files (which are the lifeblood of the site) “went down with the ship”

OUCH!

Cam Reilly is one of the original Aussie Web 2.0 guys and The Podcast Network is one of the true Aussie Web 2.0 success stories, so it breaks my heart to see this happen. The guys are building things back up “site by site” but even if they get everything back, this sucks big time… especially only a couple of days out from Christmas.

Back in July we had our own complete HDD fail and lost everything. To think of how painful that was for us, then to factor in the sheer difference in scale between TPN and TechNation Australia, makes me feel sick for them.

Good luck guys and hope to see you back up and running soon.
