DirectNIC needs site to keep Interdictor on the air

Here's an appeal for a site where volunteers can work to support the Interdictor blog (the most massively useful thing anyone watching the situation could have):
As an owner of Intercosmos Media Group, Inc., I would like to thank all of you for the overwhelming support you have shown our company, our group, and our fight. This week has been a nightmare for everyone involved. The team at Outpost Crystal has done an outstanding job. There are many employees behind the scenes who have also committed themselves to working 16 hour days amidst complete turmoil, to keeping direcNIC.com up and operational.

Unfortunately all of these people are scattered across several states and telecommuting via hotel connections, pc cards, dial-up connections and even wi-fi hotspots. This dedicated group needs a temporary home until New Orleans is rebuilt!

Please help us to find a temporary home for 55 employees. We are looking for the following:

Short-term solution * 6,000 - 8,000 square feet * Ready to occupy, desks, chairs, etc * Workplaces for 55 people * Nearby datacenter preferable * Internet connectivity * Nearby housing * Texas, Northern Louisiana, Georgia, & Florida are preferable...

Please send any information to noah@intercosmos.com.

I also want to take this time to thank all Internet providers who have offered assistance in secondary collocation, bandwidth and hardware. We especially want to thank National Net, Marlin Web Hosting, and EV1. They have been invaluable with their assistance.


Best regards,

Noah Lieske, Co-owner / Director
Intercosmos Media Group, Inc.
