So you are probably wondering, what in tar-nation happened to Brian's website. The weird thing is this site has been up all along. I shall now explain in lay-men's terms. Let's say my house has a sign on it called "BrianAldenBass.com" and the sign blows away. My house is still there, the sign is just gone. Each URL like yahoo.com, google.com has a unique address. We call that an IP Address. For instance this site's new IP address is 72.64.68.35 -Try to type that in your browser and hit enter. You should still see this site. You just are accessing it by the correct IP Address. Now back in the day people got tired of putting in numbers so they came up with the Domain Naming System. This allowed people to associate IP Addresses with URLs. So when you type BrianAldenBass.com into your web browser it gets sent through the Internet to find a "Name Server" that has the correct IP Address to point to. The IP Address that you typed in earlier will then get called and send back the correct page. So this site itself has not been down, all you needed to know was the IP Address and you could've hit it directly. Every site on the Internet usually takes 24-48 hours to change the IP Address. This time since I changed the Parent Name Server it had to take 24-48 hours to cancel the existing name server and 24-48 hours to bring up the new one. If I was smart I would've setup the new Name Server and waited for it to be up before I cancelled the old one. But I didn't do that, duh. All problems should be fixed now. Life is good.
