Squid static page caching helps them a lot, I'm sure. S3 for image serving. Backend is written in PHP, IIRC.

  Urban Dictionary is a pretty good site for looking things like this up. (possibly NSFW for some..) http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=iirc http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=iirc

  nothing personal but i downvote any question that could have been answered quickly by the asker themselves if they took a moment to Google.

    That's what I usually do as well, however: DDG: http://duckduckgo.com/?q=iirc http://duckduckgo.com/?q=iirc Gives me an IRC server written in Java - which didn't expect to be of use for Tumblr; Interactive Illinois Report Card which doesn't make any sense. I also checked google.. typed in define:IIRC and then I actually got the result of "if i remember correctly", but by then my brain had become so sure that it was some sort of technology that I dismissed that result right away. Well, you can call me stupid or a bad researcher, but it was an honest question which was asked after I had honestly tried to find the answer to in another manner.

      You should just use google, it finds better results than DDG most of the time for me at least: http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=chrome&client=ubuntu&channel=cs&ie=UTF-8&q=IIRC&qscrl=1 http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=chrome&client=ubun...

        Yes it does. And I find myself re-searching in Google about 30% of the time. But for semi-common search terms you get the result right there on the page, instead of having to click through to another page - and sometime something interesting even pops up. But I also want to give another search engine a shot and since it's hard to get people to switch engines, I figured I didn't want to be like the old guy from Frasier who always needs to have his ugly-ass chair just because his brain is so used to it.
