I was able to browse brandonw.net just fine just days ago, but I have recently been unable to open it. Does anyone have any info on this?
I agree that he probably just forgot to pay the bill. 
I was disappointed to see that I couldn't access WikiTI yesterday to look something up about bcall $807E.

Brandonw said that he thinks it's because of the ps3jb or something like that.
