I type corrected. :)
slashdot was one of the first real big websites to use template toolkit (Perl)
tempted to try an upgrade of my VPS to FreeBSD 9.1-R
been running freebsd here for eyars
years
I like it, started out with 2.1.5 or so
it would be interesting to see a historical traffic graph for /.
then plot that against reddit
throw digg in there too?
ja
maybe some hackernews too
and geocities!
lol
my first website was on geocities.  I looked for it in archives the other day,  and it's beyond gone :/
angelfire was mine.
anyone use / remember tripod websites
i rmember them.
oh nice my guess for slashdot.org's age was pretty accurate
has to be fun working at tumblr right now
Why?
http://downrightnow.com/tumblr
when is tumblr not down?
huh, had no idea... They're missing their A record though
they actually removed it
easymac: usually? I mean, I've never had a problem visiting a tumblr blog
probably couldn't handle telling people tubmlr was down
haha
they're down pretty frequently.
that's aweosme that they removed the A record though.
this track comes to mind :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DDwxhHwJ66M
easymac: yeah. a-grade network management
well CNAMEs seem to be working just fine
i.e. individual blogs
i've pulled up a few
(okay it's not a CNAME, it's an A with a 5s TTL)
yeah, custom domain names work fine too
weird, assets.tumblr.com is hanging, but it's supposed to be on Akamai
not hanging for me
i dont have a link to an asset, but i can resolve and communicate with assets.
just connected *shrug*
whatever
oh well
