HOLY COW! As of today, December 11, 2009, InetDaemon.Com has served up 16,182,921 hits and 3,624,997 pages for our loyal readers since January 1, 2009! That works out to roughly 300,000 page views per month and 1,000 page views per day–that’s entirely due to you, my loyal readers.
Since the beginning of the year, I’ve added blogging software and I’m looking into other tools and services for next year, such as online seminars, audio podcast courses and more. I’ll continue to develop technology tutorials and will blog about my experiences developing for the web, technologies and even a little bit about my experiences in high-security government contracting.
I’d like to thank everyone for visiting in 2009 and encourage them to keep coming back!
The DNS tutorials have always been a bit of a monster and in need of better organization. There’s a lot to how DNS works and there are a lot of individual tutorial pages in that section of the site. I’ve updated the DNS tutorial and reorganized it. The reorganization means that if you’ve bookmarked the DNS pages, the bookmark probably isn’t working any more because the page moved.
The DNS tutorial was organized as a set of pages in one folder. I’ve now grouped them into categories. I still need to go through and sort the pages into the correct reading order and update some scripts so that the ‘next page’ functionality works properly. At one time, I looked into converting the static pages into WordPress ‘pages’, but there are over 800 individual pages within this site and WordPress apparently has problems handling more than 160 pages (WordPress would crash and I’d have to wipe out the installation, reset MySQL and reinstall it).

I’m going back through the articles I’ve written and saved, but never published, so some articles are going to pop up as I approve them (click the publish button). Not sure why I was so cautious in only saving them instead of publishing them. Too shy? Maybe. Maybe just a little paranoid.
In any case, expect quite a few ‘new’ old articles to pop up soon.
P.S.
Don’t forget to register for a free account. Accounts are free (no charge, no cost). Only registered users can add comments (reply) to my blog postings. I’m looking at adding a forum to the site and in order to block the spammers from posting comment-spam to my blog or to the forum, I have to have a list of ‘permitted’ users, and that means asking my readers to register. It’s simple, quick and relatively painless.
Thanks!
