Softlayer/The Planet Merger? SimpleCDN shutdown?
« on: December 14, 2010, 06:34:01 am »
Well, I've been away from the 'hosting' side of the world for a while and havnt been keeping myself updated with all of the latest information...but today I found out that Softlayer was bought out by The Planet and then merged?? Wth? The world's best hosting service merged with the worlds worse service(Theplanet)? What the heck happened?

Anyone that has servers there - whats your experience?

On top of that - one of their first things they do, is shut down SimpleCDN?

What has the hosting world come too?

Someone do brain surgery on me before my head explodes!
know that I myself cannot do anything, that I will fall, and that I am a sinful man, but I know that I can do ANYTHING through God Almighty, whom strengthens me.
