What’s the quality of a weblog?

I dunno
I’ve a steady visitornumber of about 100-200 people a day.
For me it’s linking to interesting things I think they are interesting. But mainly I try to find things not mentioned on other weblogs. Not always, but I try as much as I can.

Sometimes I see things appear in another weblog which I had logged a few days before. Then I think in myself: Cool .. The entry I had was interesting enough for other webloggers to publish also .. That’s my engine. Trying to look for things not mentioned before (not always). That’s my quality.

Also important: if you can understand what I’m writing than it’s okay. Type errors or write errors: I try to have them as less as possible. I’m not a journalist or try not to intend to be one. So forgive me.

Experts?

Any experts in the room?
at http://www.aroundmyroom.com/news I have a test running for a perl script. This script should read and display a normal text file. It does not. What’s going wrong under this Cobalt based-system?

Help.

Yahoogroups down

Reading your sources gives you more info :-). My mailinglist mixfreak.org was offline also .. Using it almost 4 or even 5 years now.

::Scripting::
YahooGroups has been down for most of the last 24 hours, bringing much of our work to a halt, of course, at the worst possible time. News.Com ran an article, but it doesn’t offer much detail on the source of the outage or an ETA. They’re merging YahooGroups with their chat communities

Paul Fletcher: “FYI, the Yahoo Groups outage was caused by the RAID on the main Oracle database blowing up. The hot standby has been offline because of a bad CPU, so the database had to be rebuilt. Which takes time with 40+ million users.”

It’s starting slowly again
