How are we to update our feed status during power outages?

I've lost power a few times, for several hours, due to thunderstorms. There's no way to access the website to update the feed status without power or an internet connection.

You can make you status message only appear when the feed is down. Just make the status message "Temporarily offline" and set it to only show when the feed is down. Other than that, there is nothing you can do if you can't get online.

Get a laptop with a dialup modem or a cell modem if you just can't live without it.

Thanks.

That's what I've done.

I can live without the feed, but I hate getting repeated email notices that the feed is down cluttering my email box when I restore things.

Make a rule on your email that will bounce the restored messages. Then you would only be notified when it goes down.
