Neatorama: Updating Servers

Hello everyone! Just a little update: We’re updating Neatorama’s servers to try out a new super-duper caching system to help the blog survive traffic spikes. Neatorama seems to load faster for me already, if the ad server could just keep up.

We’re discontinuing a couple of features to help fine-tune performance: no more displaying comments on the homepage (this was one of my favorite features on the blog, but sadly it had to go); no more email this post, poll and top commenters (in their current forms, anyhow). Oh, and we’ll get the suggest-a-link page back up soon.

Some people had reported hiccups with the comment, but everything should be back to normal already. Lastly, thank you for reading the blog … and please tell your friends about Neatorama!
