For what its worth, I found Rackspace's support to not be worth the extremely high cost. Softlayer is just as good.

Anyone gotten access to the API yet?

I believe most people in the name spinner business use a cached zone file rather than doing live lookups. Perhaps look in to that.

In the past I've had a rough time parsing PHP (for an rdoc-style project), despite PHP having some built in support for parsing itself: http://php.net/manual/en/function.token-get-all.php Perhaps if one attempted to pull the parser out of

I wish either of these services would let users mix via line in or mic in so DJs could free form their tracks and mixing style. This, coupled with a 5-10 minute per room restriction on mix length, could really take the performance possibili

One more aspect: a lot of PPC advertisers do not like to use network ads (i.e., partner sites) because they are perceived as yielding lower quality clicks. Clicks from Google itself are seen to be more likely to monetize for the advertiser.

It seems like their bandwidth costs are a bit high, though, which would mitigate the savings in many cases. Anyone know if they'll play ball and include free bandwidth? This would be a great machine to host Destructoid.com if so.

But contractors are often working for many customers at one time. If one of those customers has a large project, it will affect the time available for the rest of the contractors projects.

But how do you find good engineers who are also good graphic designers? That seems to be the sticking point to me.

Are you guys watching the new Kona project? I'm excited about it.

Let me know if you go through with this project. A very safe, legally codified, trustworthy middleman seems definitely necessary at this point. I don't have the requisite knowledge, and probably not the fiduciary responsibility, but I'd lik

What about releasing a minimal skeleton version as open source and free in the app store, but keeping the feature-laden edition as closed source and pay?

Salesforce.com is the COBOL of Web 2.0. I find their success story riveting.

So far the US is only cracking down on domains in the .COM TLD. Do you guys think the US will eventually crack down on non-US-owned TLDs that are operated by US entities, such as .CO (operated by NeuStar)? And after that, perhaps a doomsday

It would really depend what those users are doing. If they're reading a single HTML page, you could handle that fairly easily. If they're playing a game it's another story.

I think the reason is a little more simple and obvious then that. Programmers are naturally drawn to difficult "high frequency" environments (hence all the interest in how Google/Netflix/Facebook run, even though few people will ever work o

I'm pretty surprised by this information! I've heard the exact opposite - people are more likely to click Twitter links then FB shares, which mirrors my personal experience using both. Thanks for sharing.

I think this is what they're planning. I note that they have made very slow progress on their on-site platform bits (and actually hurt them in many ways by reducing virality) but are constantly improving their off-site stuff, like Like stre

An easy/fun testbed for this idea might be Erlang's new type specs: http://www.erlang.org/doc/reference_manual/typespec.html You could write a parse transform that wraps all exported funs in a module in some kind of type analyzing shim fu

What a fantastic idea. Wikitravel may be a better source then just Wikipedia for this. I'd buy this app.

I wonder if they could avoid the tax penalties of having a presence in every state by structuring the local delivery service as a separate entity that does local deliveries for any ebusiness that stocks their products in a given warehouse i

I didn't know about Kona. Thank you thank you thank you! My transition from the sidelines into the pit of vector-oriented programming seems to be accelerating.

Are you talking about the limits in the linked article? It's 10,000 contacts in the address book that are limited, not total employees - though that is probably limited too.

It does seem to have a lot of weird artificial limits around the edge that no amount of begging or paying will ever change. I know people are saying stuff like this doesn't matter, but I manage at least 15 domains on GDomains now, and I wil

Apple's pride is really swollen these days. The downfall will be as fun to watch the second time as it was the first.

I've also been frustrated by these issues. I want to be able to edit a file with local typing speed (i.e., gvim on Windows), but then be able to hit a key and be in a terminal window on that server in that folder to perhaps do a manual grep

Did you not see enough money in the event market to continue trying to build products in that space? View.io seems to be a bit of a departure from that.

They have a strange way of sprinting into the future without telling everyone how to keep up. They've been saying to stop using FBML for months, and only now do we have the ability to create iframe tab apps. Pretty obnoxious. However, I don

You can still avoid loading whole new pages. You simply attach Javascript events to your anchor tags and do whatever Ajax content trickery you want that way. The page content itself is maximally flexible and useful to all agents if the URLs
