Estrip short outage possible

Paul,

Just a heads up, one of our two T1 circuits is totally out, so we're essentially running at half speed. Just in case you noticed any slowdowns, that'd be why... I just discovered there isn't so much as link lights from the telco on the circuit card so not good news...

I'm working with Level3 to see what's up - they did warn they might have to do "intrusive troubleshooting" - i.e. take the circuit offline and test it in loopback mode. Last time we had a problem like this, they insisted on testing the good circuit as well as the trouble one, leaving us totally disconnected... so if they go that route again there might be a brief (few minutes) of total outage. Here's to hoping not... that's all I know so far though, but figured I'd pass it on.

Quick Stats Overview of Estrip

So I have been doing lots of Adobe Flex stuff and I wanted to see what version of flash player people had to see if it was worth using Flex for estrip dev and I noticed that the Flash 9 player is used by 99%+ of userw. That is some seriously insane market penetration. Thanks youtube and xtube. I freakin love Flex. I am so excited about like more excited than I have been about anything web in so long.

Here are some visitor stats

Notice that Firefox is now more popular than IE!

Over one year, the traffic is steadily growing.

I am a physician, blah, blah, blah

I find it totally frustrating that this irate person who cannot provide me with the information required to handle the situation. I am not afraid of her attorney. We have been through this before. Why would should not have provided me with the link in the first place?

Hi do you guys have a webmaster? My name is coming up on a google search with slanderous material and I need to speak with the webmaster about this and hopefully remove this blog. Please e-mail me at jessica7273 AT yahoo.com I would very greatly appreciate this.

The blog is over 1 year old, the girl who posted it is

attacking my mother and is being arraigned this week,
she hallucinates seeing me and we have a restraining
order against her. She is obsessed with me and I have
not had any contact with her in years nor do I intend
to contact her. I would prefer to not have to contact
my attorney to get this done. I have not lived in
Buffalo nor even visited there in years, I am married
with a husband as well as I am a physician. The
information on your blog is slanderous as well as a
defamation of character and I am assuming that you
have some control over what is posted. She apparently
is not a frequent blogger on your site rather has only
posted 1 random blog and as this comes up when you
google my name it should be removed. So please let me
know what other channels you have for this process.

Then I said:

I am willing to work with you on this. But if you do not give me the link to the blog, I cannot help you. How do you expect me to be able to locate the blog or the girl from the description you have given me in the last two contacts? Do you expect me to search for all blogs over 1 year old written by a girl.

Paul

Artvoice Best Of Buffalo 2008

Well, its that time of year when we normally lose Artvoice's Best of Buffalo contest but this year the category for Best Website is just gone so at least we cannot really lose, or do we pre-lose?

There is a category for best blogger and I selfishly voted for myself. You can feel free to vote for yourselves.

Like the sound of (e:Terry)'s new hack and kill game with the girl with the red hair in the background? Sounds like I am reporting at some battle ground.

NFTA Bus Schedules Made Easy - Buffalo

NFTA - Metro: Routes & Fares - buffalo bus schedule - schedules for the bus in Buffalo, NY

I decided to make a much simpler list for downloading the NFTA metro Bus and Rail schedules as I was so sick of navigating the stupid NFTA site to get the Bus schedule PDFs on my mobile. Its also at a simpler URL, estrip.org/nfta If you mobile doesn't do PDFS then this isn't so great but its still an easier way to load the PDFs on your computer for printing. Because of this I added a jpeg version as well. If you click the jpeg link next to a route, it converts the pdf to jpeg on the file for you so that you can view it with any image viewer. Maybe I will do a plain text version soon, if I have some time.

It sucks that the schedules are in PDF format for most people but hopefully this at least makes them easier to get to. If I have time I might convert the data as well.

Switching Servers

There is a good chance I am going to switch servers today. The new one is up and running at my house and thinks that it is estrip.org - now I just need to switch them out over at the Artvoice data center. Then we will be one step closer to estrip v6.

At first it will just run estrip v5 like the current site but having both versions on one server will make it much easier for me to transition the data between the versions.

So at some point today the site may be down for a tiny bit.
--paul

P.S. If anyone still wants to donate to the server fund we almost made it all the way to 100%. Thanks to everyone who helped - your support gives estrip a bright future with a new fancy server.
