On launch James appeared on BBC, ITV, Local Radio and Press articles. However due to media attention and the surge of traffic, the servers crashed for a couple of hours. Now every search term returns: "Your Search produced No Results". On asking why the website was no longer operational, James said 'He had gained great experience from the project however wanted to move on to bigger brighter things in the years ahead'.
