Learning in online environments

The learning continues. Today I've been "working around" the fact that samlab.com and related email accounts are "off line." My experience has me thinking of all sorts of things, from changing service providers, to co-location on another server for redundancy, to what email account to use....

The thing is, much like in the "real world" -- these problems don't come into high relief, sometimes, until they come and whack you upside the head. This in turn makes one much more aware of backups, contingencies and workarounds.
