Let's speculate on where he is or what he's doing
My 3 guesses, in no particular order are
1) writing a grant
2) off in Africa, performing pdockery miracles
3) kidnapped by bureaucracy and held hostage by "duty"

I believe him to sending us messages through the advertisements at the bottom of the screen.
Based on that my guesses are
1. He is conducting an illicit affair without being caught2. He has become a minister of the eucharist and is being fitted for his cassock
3. He is at home playing with his bob kittens real live replicas of the big cats

1. He's gone loopy and is the ringmaster at a three ring circus. You know, like group therapy.
2. He's riding a Segway to California--he hasn't made it yet.
3. He decided he really wanted to be a roofer.

1. he was smuggling cocaine into the us to make money for babble (since the server keeps going down, and to also get rid of these horrid ads), and was caught in customs. claiming, much like any dense us citizen would, that 'i had no idea. i thought it was my friend's bag', he is being held in prison until a lawyer is able to find a viable reason for his release.
2. he has been caught in an insurance scam, claiming to have lost over $3 million in diamonds, rubies and various assorted rare and priceless gems in his handbag at a benefit to help the mentally ill.
3. he slipped in his kitchen one day, while microwaving a bowl of spagehtio's. finding that he, indeed, did not have his handy dandy life alert ('help me, i've fallen and i can't get up!') system on his persons, he has been stuck in his kitchen, just within arms rech of his cell phone, food, water, adn even his fine wine that he loves.

Phil,
If you see Dr. Bob flying around with a bunch of bats in the vicinity of Austin, please pick him up and return him safely to babbleland.
((((bats)))))

Here's the story. Psycho-Babble is just taking up too much of Dr Bob's time. The servers are costing him hundreds of dollars each year. He's thinking: "Man, just imagine the cool warez I could have bought for my overpriced Mac with that money." His old-school colleagues at University of Chicago frown upon his running this website. "Bob, if you want that research grant you applied for, I'd advise you to review your position on that website of yours."
So he decides to let the website self-destruct. Everybody is fighting with everybody. Even the deputies can't handle it any more, and are leaving one by one. It becomes a free-for-all, a psycho-circus where mentally ill and psychologically vulnerable people are left to their own devices. Eventually the contract on the server expires. One day we log in to Psycho-Babble only to get the message "Error 404: Server not found."
Then I woke up and realised it was just a bad dream.

He was in Finland, ran out of lithium, made an ill advised dash to the Russian border and was arrested by the FSB as a spy.

Nah-- he was vaporized by space aliens who were trying to take over Pbabble, as a spearhead in their quest to conquer Planet Earth.
Unless he finds his prescription pad and time-travelling office chair, he'll never be able to resubstantiate himself and return to the board.
He was lost trying to save us. Everyone please remember that.
