strange_complex | Missing: one university

Wow - the whole of Warwick University seems to have disappeared from the internet. Every time I try to go to any of their pages, I'm told the server can't be found. That's got to be a pretty serious balls-up, right? I'm now having visions of turning up there at the end of the Easter vacation to find nothing but a charred field of smoking ruins, a few papers fluttering pathetically in the post-nuclear breeze. And, of course, nobody could have told me, because they're all dead! Waaah!

Hi! As a student from Warwick I can confirm that the uni is still there, but in my opinion the IT services shouldn't be... Okay, this time I acknowledge that it wasn't the IT services fault (as you'll see on the website which is now working: http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/insite) but the amount of times I have phoned the IT service and complained and ranted on and on about various problems is countless...

Anyway, apart from that, the uni is a lovely place and I hope the weather is good when you're there. Make sure you take a walk around the lakes. And feed the ducks. ;-)

Oh, believe me, I'm no fan of Warwick's IT service. I've had trouble with them before, when my computer breaks and they say someone will come and have a look at it 'within the next 24 hours'. No good, when I have a lecture to deliver in 3 hours and I can't get at my notes!

BTW, it's lovely to see you all here, but any idea how come so many people outside my normal readership seem to be finding this post? It's rare for me to get any anonymous comments on my posts at all, let alone two on one entry. Just curious.

Hi again,

I'm actually a final year undergraduate, studying Biochemistry. Just randomly came across here when searching blogs for "warwick university". ;-) (things I do when I should be revising...)
