(Not) Killing Me Softly With Your Feeds. Just having set up some stats reports on this server, I find with no surprise the big consumer of activity is our Feed2JS script, which according to the data, in the last 7 days felt:
- 3,182,586 hits (96% of the total)
- 455,000 hits per day
- 18,943 hits per hour
- 315 hits per minute
The server is fine and there is no intent to shut this down. I
monitor the CPU usage and am trying to unravel some periodic swings
where it maxes 100% of the CPU. There are some patterns there to try
and detective my way through. We run another server at a different
address off the same XServe, and that site was getting way too much
crawling action, so knocking out all the bots with a robots.txt
exclusion seemed to help the whole box out alot.
As mentioned before, at sometime in the next month or two, I will be
moving Feed2JS to its own dedicated server (a new PC laptop has freed
up a PIII box in my office-- every second hand PC in our office gets
the Linux touch and is put to work). Have no fears, there will be ample
warning and clean server redirects from where FeedJS sits now. [cogdogblog]

[tti] Morning. In a sentence, here's what's wrong with
predefined ontologies and taxonomies: "we use existing
patterns to search the data, which can't turn up new
patterns." In another, here's what's wrong with manual
tagging: "his department generates 5 million new
objects per month, too much for manual tagging." Now
if you take these two points as given, as I do, then what
follows? How would you approach metadata and design? By

Google Maps is a web of linked XML documents.
Lots of people have been noticing cool things about Google Maps: large
and readable maps, image dragging, dynamic updating, integration with
local search, clean URLs for bookmarking, local XSLT processing,
transparent PNGs. Then, today, somebody1 pointed out
something that just knocked my socks off. You can append "output=xml"
to any Google Maps URL and receive raw XML. Here's a trivial use of
that feature: ... [Jon's Radio]
