This should have been saved for 1 April. It's good advertising though, and since it hit the front page of HN it's probably driving a ton of traffic to their site.
- gpjt 14y agoWe probably should have waited but it was one of those silly ideas you get on a Friday evening and we're probably never have got round to it if we'd not done it right away. In terms of traffic to our main site -- not too much, 400 extra visitors or so. But that's not a problem, we did it because we thought it was funny, and put in the link to PythonAnywhere as an afterthought. Just wanted to share the joke. That said, the Pinode site is running in one of our standard $5/month accounts and is handling a Hacker News front page (a few dozen hits/second) without even breaking a sweat. Just sayin'...
