Todd,

This is an awesome site and I was happy to find it on Digg - keep up the good work! My site is in the midst of an overhaul and we are building out a new network, but at some point I'd definitely like to add a link here. Meanwhile I'll add the RSS feed and keep my eye on the goings on here.

Thanks!

Randy

Great Concept

There has not been a good aggregated source of this kind of information. Keep it up.

Awesome Site

I'm loving it...this is turning out to be a great resource...

Todd,

Thanks for putting this site together. It was really hard to find information about really great architectures in real world which scale to millions of users. This is really great stuff.

Please take this post off the front page. Every time I (and I suspect many others) look at it, I say. "Oh, They haven't posted anything new yet" and go away. Archaeological order is the way to go.

Re: Welcome to High Scalability

Hi Elliotte, I understand what you are saying and I agree to a large extent. The idea is to provide a good experience for new visitors while still not inconveniencing returns users too much. I hate it when I go to a site and have no idea what the site is about or how to use the site, so thus the short sticky top post was born. Not ideal, but I hope it's an OK compromise.

Re: Welcome to High Scalability

Thanks for a great read. This is the first time I sat down to really take my time on the site.

I would agree with Elliotte (above), but I can appreciate your position. It still messes with my head though...

Re: Welcome to High Scalability
