Kinda, but without the pain of having to rewrite your pages, and with a much higher efficiency. Actually have a blog post about this queued up to go out tomorrow.

That makes a lot of sense and could have been what happened. It would also make it more difficult for Google to do something like ignore responses that come after 4+ rings.

Haha. Wish we were that organized. We have a big announcement on Wednesday and need the announcement about Polish ( http://blog.cloudflare.com/introducing-polish-automatic-imag... ) and the feature we're announcing tomorrow (Mirage) to come

There was a flaw in the system that Google uses to allow the transfer of control from an account. Two-factor authentication wasn't compromised itself, but the attacker was able to bypass it to access it. That flaw, they tell us, has since b

CloudFlare provides a IPv6 -> IPv4 gateway. As a result, if you're on CloudFlare, your host doesn't need to have IPv6 support for your site to be available. You can enable the gateway for free. CloudFlare's DNS listens on IPv6 and will

CloudFlare uses Anycast. However, we shift sites around between IPs frequently in order to, for example, isolate a site under DDoS from the rest of our network. While it may be possible to create a IP-based CDN, my guess is the tradeoffs in

The real benefit of using one repository across multiple sites is that it increases the likelihood the library is available from the browser's cache. DNS lookup and retrieval will need to happen the first time a visitor goes to a site with

The cache-and-optimize-offline strategy that Google Page Speed is using is fraught with problems for dynamic sites. We tried this at first with some CloudFlare optimizations and it was a disaster. We rewrote the system from scratch to do on

Given the choice, I may not have picked Public Enemy Number One as the poster child for CloudFlare's service. It does, however, remind me of the old Range Rover commercial talking about the great London bank heist. "The robbers thought of e
