This song tells the tale of a late night and a broken web site, sung to the Twelve-bar blues. The drums and bass are courtesy of a Boss DR-3 drum machine. The guitar and vocals are real.

You can run Plan 9 under Xen, Amazon AWS being one of those places. I've been running it under VirtualBox as well. If you are already using virtualization, the Plan 9 device drivers may be less of an issue.
