I will be strong. You are not gone from me.

Grandma, rest in peace.

Hello Slicehost!

Tuesday, July 17th, 2007

As you might know, I’ve been sharing a dedicated server with three more guys. Since several months ago, we have been thinking about change the provider because the plans offered by JVDS were very price-outdated compared with other providers. Dreamhost didn’t fit our requirements (no root access and shared databases., WTF?!), so we had to choose between either Linode or Slicehost.

After waiting for about a month in the prospective customer queue, we finally moved to Slicehost. Slicehost is a fast, made-from-geeks-to-geeks and XEN powered virtual dedicated servers provider.

We’re quite happy with the change, we got a new machine with four times more memory for the same price and we also moved from Apache to Lighttpd. All the references from Slicehost we read were good and, at least by now, I second those thoughts.

Skyhusker made an awesome work migrating the stuff and all the services are already moved. Of course, we’re running Etch.

Telecinco felicita a Sun

Interesante, Telecinco felicita a Sun por su buen hacer. Es raro ver estas cosas en televisión sin fines publicitarios, aunque quien sabe.

Discovering new bands

Tuesday, July 10th, 2007

Paying tribute to the girl who pointed me out to this fantastic indie band, I’d recommend listen to Move on Now, crafted by Hard-Fi.

Sweet taste, deep melody.

P.S.) Martin, Gazpacho sounds nice ;)
