I wrote a post on my blog explaining why we participated in yesterday’s Internet blackout: SOPA & PIPA Blackout
Ongoing server issues and stats
February 9, 2008 by Andrea · 3 Comments
Sorry *again* for all the recent downtime. We recently upgrade the hosting account to a whopping 768MB of RAM. That’s memory. Check your own computer’s RAM for a comparison. We get our wespace from here if you’re curious. And yes, we have plans to move up to a dedicated server in the near future.
It’s been a while since I’ve done any stat reporting and since I was poking around the backend, I thought I’d snag the results for January.
Unique visitors 38546
Number of visits 105622
Pages 793529
Hits 1694888
Bandwidth 28.55 GigaBytes
We’ve been consistently getting over a million hits a month every month since August. Mostly I keep seeing awesome statistics & math lessons when I look at the charts.
Whups, sorry about that

A spammer went through the entire server spamming all installs across the entire box. If you need cleanup help, just let us know.
Also, my desktop died about a month ago, and in moving to a new laptop, I completely missed my HSJ mail. :-/

Some old themes have been cleaned out, and we’ve added shiny new themes to take advantage of WordPress 3.1′s new features. There’s TONS of customizations you can do – including a couple themes for those of you who like posting lots of pictures.
Have fun!

Sick girl

My little princess is rather sick. She started Sunday night with a sore throat and ears. I'm not one to take my kids to the dr. I prefer to let nature fight of illnesses. Well by Tuesday she was just laying around not able to do much. Now if they had … [Read More...]
