We can DO this
Will you help me crash Dreamhost?
Dullblog’s been intermittent since the 23rd, but I’ve finally fixed it. Not really how I envisioned spending my Christmas week, but these things happen.
Now I need to test the new setup. It would really help if everybody who reads this shares a favorite post or two (or ten). Facebook likes are good, submitting to StumbleUpon or Reddit or Digg would be even better.
My hope here is to give us 24 hours of much, MUCH larger traffic than we’ve ever had before. That’s the only way to be sure that all the things Dreamhost says they’ve done, actually work.
So can you help? Many thanks.
One thing I notice: the “Recent Comments” (my favorite feature) often lags behind, and will not display the most recent comments. This can sometimes go on for days.
I’ll see what I can do about this, @Sam. Thank you.
