not many do mention that scrapedfeeds.com is back in the air
Free RSS service from sites without ..
Month: June 2004
working remote
Working remote from behind a proxy. Meaning I am at work. Testing a little the speed and performance of the weblog. It’s looking great.
Only .. Only …. the building of a new entry should be done in the background cause that is consuming some time.
Also testing some stuff at the blogger.xs4all.nl page (trackback / rss stuff) ..
it worked
so, switched servers and saving hosting money now for my weblog.
What did I do?
I run movabletype version 3.0 for 3 domains now (liliancam.net, griftstate.com and aroundmyroom.com). The weblog resides on www.mixfans.org and from there it serves the domains to have a weblog running. (all those domains are my own and run as virtual host at my qube3
In the morning I upgraded to MT 3.0, imported the database from the old server into the new one and kept the standard templates.
finetuning some issues and did some trials with the fresh installed weblog. All worked fine immediately.
In the afternoon
Switching DNS to another IP, and checking if everything went well.
Tonight
added the statistics page for myself and put it in the crontab.
It’s cool to see if things work as expected, but still some work left.
Other Server, Other look
AroundMyRoom is now running from my own personal server. Running at home. The sample templates are fine for me, so I will not change to the old look. All entries are imported into the database and archives have been made also.
Kewl .. it feels like a fresh new start.
Just a test
testing a new weblog ..
Scrapedfeeds.com back in the air !
I can happy announce that since of today scrapedfeeds.com is sponsored by: 1-eurohost
After gettings some tips of Vincent
1 e-mail and Stein of 1-eurohost was helping me with sponsoring scrapedfeeds.com WAUW !!
Scrapedfeeds.com is running again. The backup has been restored so no information has been lost.
Unique new service: Scrapedfeeds is scraping the Unique news service of NU.NL/Telex
Last week ilse Media announced that they have a unique new service: a newsarticle service. 7 categories of news from different sources at 1 page
WEEEHOOOIEEE that’s unique.. <NOT> That is the same as newsisfree, loglezer and scrapedfeeds.com are doing for month’s if not years already.
Bummer .. that new unique service lacks RSS .. (I wonder how they retrieve the feeds)
Therefore: scrapedfeeds is scraping the unique Nu.nl Telex pages into RSS .. that’s what I call: unique …. ‘;-)
Python
Message to self (I saw the light), when wanting to have Phyton scripts to run with .py exentsion your webserver should know. So please add .py where .pl and .cgi are also. [httpd.conf]
Typepad Weblog
Uhmmm.. when I checked the weblog of PCMweb (PCM Magazine) I noticed that they are using Typepad… Wow.. one of the first dutch sites using Typepad..
scrapedfeeds.com news
A few reactions came after my descision to stop with scrapedfeeds.com
It was fun. I’ve moved the domain to another server to make sure that my home system is not affected with all those 404 errors ..
The server where scrapedfeeds.com is now running at is not suitable for using the system with myheadlines as engine. I need much more CPU and Memory I can see now when I see the statistics after removing scrapedfeeds.com
Also I am surprised to see how ‘automatic’ the retrieval of feeds goes. Like it is retrieved but never checked for existance anymore. Even when people use a simple RSS reader ..
Yup: when someone donates a machine: Scrapedfeeds.com will be up again without loss of any data … But that’s wishfull thinking ..
