This website is now out of the closet

Posted on October 27, 2007 by Gene

For years, my webserver has lived quietly in the closet of my spare bedroom. Until this morning.
I feel like it is a child that’s gone off to college. It now lives at a professional data center somewhere in Santa Clara, in a secure undisclosed location accessed by a hand print. The little Mac mini is sitting in a cage with a bunch of other servers, network appliances, and whatnot. The room is very loud, has rows and rows of racks, huge cables and thousands of wires.
I felt rather bad leaving it there, all alone in a cage, like it was a pet that I took to the pound.
