The blog about the blogs!
Since I was always curious about these things, and since it’s somewhat relevant here…
This server is a dedicated server at LayeredTech in Texas. (They’re single-homed on Savvis, but they’re in the Savvis data center, so it’s not that risky.) It’s an Athlon XP 2400 (1.826298 GHz, per /proc/cpuinfo) with 512 MB RAM and an 80GB disk. It’s running Gentoo Linux, PHP5, MySQL 5, and Apache2.
The blogs are powered by WordPress Multi-User, commonly WPMU.
I host a number of services here, but the machine is vastly under-utilized, with the blogs being the main attraction. I’m not currently doing commercial hosting right now.
