a couple of great articles on the issues involved with gslb. if anyone has any idea how akamai's freeflow/edgesuite claims to provide dc failover in around a minute i'd live to know - dns trickery or route convergence?

2nd November, 9:49 am

1st November, 9:25 pm

a nice link from the lul maps pages is this collection of maps including a couple of accurate line maps. niice.

1st November, 9:12 pm

some mapping stuff from matt jones - a list of london underground map resources (including a couple from me) and a map of the uk's motorways visualised in harry beck style. the latter would make a nice poster. time to break out the tabloid color laser at work i suspect.

1st November, 8:57 pm

saft looks like a nice set of safari extensions. why hadn't i seen that before?
