Two separate cuts. [here]
Ugh.
Not again.

Dan Bricklin writes up a great description of what I am getting next week: Verizon FiOS. [here]
So, now you know. It’s the PPPoE that’s going to kill my static connection to the Internet.
Any of you folks who volunteered to host GrabPERF, now would be a great time to step forward.

Wow.
This morning, I checked my e-mail, and had a note from Matt…
…via PayPal.
Wow.
Matt, you are one of the true gentlemen out there. Thank you for dropping by and restoring my faith in the community.
Wow.
Now, about the lack of template control in WordPress.com… 😉

The folks at WordPress.Com scraped up one of their tin tickets for me, and I will be migrating appropriate content over to the new site:

See you there!

Scoble posted that Technorati just released a major update. [here]
Sifry and Kennedy have pulled one more rabbit out of the hat, just before GrabPERF goes off the air. Congrats guys.

Anyone have good recommendations for a b2evolution hosting service that will allow me to import my existing database?

Stop by and check us out.

UPDATE: The shutdown date has been set.
NOVEMBER 22, 2005

Ok folks, this is it.
Last Call.
We have reached a point where the cost of the cable modem that connects my servers to the Internet has to be slashed.
Without the semi-static IP that I have had for the last 18 months, all of my Web services and applications will have to be terminated.
What does this mean to you?
GrabPERF will be shutting down.
Pierzchala.com will be shutting down.
WebPerformance.org will be shutting down.
And this blog will be shutting down.
I hate to do this, because it has been a great ride, but until we can get back on our feet financially, it’s a step that has to be taken.
I will be keeping this site up until November 30, 2005 November 22, 2005. After that, I will be shutting down all access.
This is not a plea for donations. This is a bare cold fact.
Heat the house or host my Web servers.
It’s a pretty easy call.

The Slacker Manager just introduced me to Tom Bihn bags. [here]
For any of your louts who forgot my birthday, or if you like GrabPERF and want to show your appreciation: I want what SM got.

Looks like Jeremy Wright and Darren Rowse have their own beefs with Google Blahnalytics (Term Courtesy of Jeremy Wright).
Gee Google, these two guys are opinion-shapers. I think maybe you should come out and say that there are issues.
Or say something.
Anything?
Or are your Overlords at the NSA still pawing over the data and won’t let you release it?

How long does it take to see report data after adding the tracking code?
After you first install the tracking code, it may take several hours for report data to appear in your account. Google Analytics generally updates your reports every hour, but data can take up to 6 hours to appear in your account.
Here.

It’s now over 24 hours, and no data.
For a company that prides itself on its massive data infrastructure and processing capabilities, the influx of millions of users trying a new service should not be an issue…right?
Maybe they need to follow up with some of their colleagues at the NSA and borrow one their supercomputers. The data is eventually going to end up there anyway.
