- markbao 16y agoThey're on WordPress VIP. I don't know why they would have endless tech problems seeing that they're hosted on the largest WordPress system. EDIT: Yes, I know that WordPress VIP does go down, but that's WordPress.com's problem, not TechCrunch's.

- rscott 16y agoI always noticed massive slowdowns loading all their JS rubbish when I load their page, but I agree; I've never seen their site down that I recall.

- Mystalic 16y agoAs the co-editor of a competing blog with similar scale, let me just say this: the tech headaches are endless. There's so much crap we deal with behind the scenes that you just don't see on Mashable.com or TechCrunch.com. But I assure you, I've had my share of late nights dealing with technology issues.
- mrkurt 16y agoAny company where tech people are the equivalent of high tech janitors is going to have endless tech problems. Smart nerdy types won't want to work there, and the company won't want to put enough resources into a cost center. There's a good lesson in there about only working at places where you contribute to income.
- sbov 16y agoFor me, before I find out a tech issue is minor, I have flashbacks to all those major issues that caused major headaches. Minor issues tend to be an "oh crap not again -> relief" ride rather than "I wonder whats wrong -> that isn't so bad".
