Hi,
I've just seen a story on TheRegister.co.uk:
http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/1/14621.html
George W. Bush's Website took a hammering ....
His campaign site took an average of 17.45 seconds to load between 9pm
and 11.30pm
What's it running on?
http://uptime.netcraft.com/graph?display=uptime&site=www.algore2000.com&find_site=GO
Windows 2000. Microsoft-IIS/5.0
... Al Gore's site threw up no such problems from fans logging on in
droves to access his site. ... as the site belonging to the Democrat
remained dead easy to get onto all night.
So, what's Al's webmaster running?
http://uptime.netcraft.com/graph?display=uptime&site=www.algore2000.com&find_site=GO
Apache/1.3.12 (Unix) PHP/4.0.1pl2 secured_by_Raven/1.5.1 (on Linux).
Whoops. Sorry George.
It's not even easy to blame the hosting company for a poor link to
GWB's website - they are both hosted by Exodus Communications.
