Upcoming

After the upcoming skiing holiday I'll address performance issues to squeeze milliseconds out of the page rendering.

Other things on my mind: better relevancy for latest news/gossip when browsing item snippets.

Happy Winter Holidays To All!

Downtime

There's been a few hours of downtime in the past days. I'm looking into it (logs are vague). Suspects on the table include phusion passenger (aka. mod_rails).

Now Featuring Popular Tweets From Twitter

With a most relaxing holiday behind me I got back to add popular tweets to the feedraider mainpage. Enjoy!
