alan varney's paranoia blog is down???

[broken serenity]

Ok i just dropped by alan's paranoia blog site to see if there had been any new updates i could read and found that instead of the site there was a costiq holding page instead, is the blog dead? or just down for maintenance atm?

Gareth Hanrahan had the same experience, but the site is up in America (or in Austin, Texas anyway):

Are you perhaps in Europe/the UK, like Gareth? It might be some DNS issue.

EDIT 1 HOUR LATER: It's now a holding page for me too. I have alerted Greg Costikyan, who hosts the blog. He has the domain for at least another year, according to whois records.
