SearchIntegrate: We relased our MUSE (cit.TimFerriss) and fell off the cloud..

Hi all!

I guess someone already noticed that something went wrong with Amazon (!) and our application, running on Heroku, was out-of-service for a while.. Our main dashboard was down and so was our API, but the good thing is that our product - a WordPress plugin for one-click-integration of paid results, uses asynchronous JavaScript that degrades nicely (silent failure) without slowing down or interrupting the function of the client's blog. LL (lesson learned): have a backup solution for your services if you can afford it (we can't at this stage) or at least MAKE SURE your product won't complicate the life of your client when things go wrong `in the sky` :)

oh, well.. let me introduce to you our (free,beta) product at searchintegrate.com! Show it some love!
