I was browsing YouTube this evening, when an error occurred on the server and a message came up on the screen, which read as follows:
500 Internal Server Error
Sorry, something went wrong.
A team of highly trained monkeys has been dispatched to deal with this situation. Etc.
I couldn't help laughing at that ... I like the response Google have shown, like ... hey, websites don't always behave and when they don't it's OK because it is being looked at and it will be up as soon as possible. If only everybody was as laid back as that when it came to website/server errors (within reason of course!).
Just remember folks, there are no guarantees that something won't happen to your website at some point in it's digital lifetime, because no matter how wonderful that SLA agreement looks on paper, it is just paper ... it's the mechanical bits, and the server software, you need to worry about.

America - You can do magic
My thanks to Radio 2 for playing this classic from 1982, by a band called America, otherwise I would never have heard of it. This song always cheers me up, so here it is.
