If you query using another ISP's looking glass or DNS lookup tools what do
you get? Oh, and which domains?

pocketpcpassion seems to be working (i can browse www.pocketpcpassion.com
ok).

for pocketpcthoughts.com, the DNS for the domain appears to be in
transit. doing a whois on the domain shows NS1.THORPROJECTS.COM (and
NS2) as the authoritative servers (record last changed 12 December),
however, doing a lookup shows some servers at shilmover.com as
authoritative - but those servers are unreachable. asking
NS1.THORPROJECTS.COM for the IP of www.pocketpcthoughts.com gives
207.34.121.20

and if you point a browser at http://207.34.121.20/ you will see the
pocetpcthoughts.com home page, which at the top says:

UPDATE: What the heck is going on? - So for those of you wondering what
happened to my side today, SHAW, the upstream bandwidth provider for
Sonic Mobility, decided to play around with IP addresses. I don't
understand what went wrong exactly, but after five hours of trying to
work with Shaw, Barry from Sonic Mobility suggested I find a third party
DNS server until this is sorted out. A friend of mine, Robert Bogue, came
to my rescue with some temporary DNS hosting. I'm hoping that when I wake
up tomorrow (Thursday) the site will be working again. This was the first
thing I woke up to this morning, and the day got worse from there. I hope
tomorrow is better!

should sort itself out over the course of the day as the DNS changes work
their way through things... but it's not a demon problem...
