I have been notified by my new host, mediatemple, that my databases are working fine and are no longer causing an undue strain on their servers. That’s the good news. Here’s the bad news: Mediatemple was the victim of a denial of service attack today. It knocked down Blog Peoria and other sites hosted with (mt) today....

Sometime overnight, the Blog Peoria Project exceeded bandwidth, and all member sites were inaccessible. It seems the warnings from my hosting company were being blocked by Yahoo’s spam filter. An email solved the problem and the sites are back up. My apologies for the inconvenience.

Folks, I got some bad news in the mail today. One of my member bloggers reported a problem entering her site. I checked, and lo and behold, it was affecting everyone’s Blog Peoria blog. Essentially, there was a data base error that reported there were “too many open filed” for the mySQL databases to work. I am...

One of the things that frustrated me the most about newspaper work is the increasing emphasis of style at the expense of substance. That’s why I found this study soemwhat disconcerting: In just a brief one-twentieth of a second — less than half the time it takes to blink — people make aesthetic judgments that...

The site was down for 20 minutes starting at about 10:45 a.m. today. I noticed some time out messages earlier this morning. My hosting company is reporting some of its servers are down. Don’t be surprised if there are occasional outages as they fix things. Believe me, it’s nothing wrong on my end with...

I spent some time today making some long-threatened site improvements. The most noticeable change is the Weather Underground graphic on top of the sidebar. I kinda like it. It adds a splash of color and usability. I’ll ditch it in a minute of anyone wants to buy the space for some advertising. Right below that, in...

No, no, no. Not Peoria Pundit. I’m talking about Historic Peoria. All I get is a Unix server error message. Since I’m sure that the people who run the site aren’t techies, let’s hope they contact their hosting company and find out what’s wrong. history,peoria,site issues

I wanted it because as someone who takes an interest in getting quality people involved in the blogsphere, it might be worth reviewing. I’ve been tossing a few quicky posts onto the thing, basically kicking...

• I’ve added “Day by Day” to my sidebar. I still have a bit of tinkering to do, I think. • To make room, I’ve dumped the pics from my Flickr site. Judging by the uttler lack of comments, no one was visiting it anyway. • I’ve increased the size of the text. I’ve also switched...
