Some of you probably noticed the Daily Globe website wasn’t updated at the usual time (midnight). As it happens, we experienced some technical difficulties with the website and couldn’t put up any stories for a while.
Whenever this happens (and to the Fargo folks’ credit, it doesn’t happen often), it drives me crazy. It’s kind of the online equivalent of having a piece of broccoli stuck in your teeth and not being able to do anything about it.
On the bright side, the whole website stayed up and functional, and you could still read articles from yesterday, so it wasn’t as if people were hitting an error message or a blue screen of death or a picture of a geek weeping over her keyboard. And I came into work this morning and put up everything as usual, from the obituaries to the news stories to a couple of opinion pieces.
So, sorry about the delay. Be sure to check out the update some time today!
Your website is still having problems with compatiblility with Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 however.
If you could send me a note to my email address I’ll let you know what information we need to report it to the developers. They are working on the problem; I know people in the newsroom experience it 10 or so times a day.
