I’ve been wanting to rewrite the URL registration pages for a while as well as putting the most used links and tools on the front page. I tried to just change the css for the daily visit list but like most things geeky I do, it turned into a mammoth project.
I do my [...]

Settling in some new RAM and API code
This server is getting busier and busier every week. It’s got so busy that I’ve had to move the most popular themes offsite to Amazon S3 and put in another 2 GB of RAM on the server.
I haven’t been able to much else lately because right after the major PC crash that happened, it happened [...]

Anti Splog now active
Beware the sploggers and fillers of blogs with crapola! I have just installed the brand new anti splog plugin from premium.wpmudev.org.

This time though, it’s because I did some big fat coding and had a great time working [...]
CommentLuv API updates.
The traffic to the API on this server has increased by 60% this year and is growing at an exceptional (nearly exponential) rate. Each new blog means at least 5 more requests to deal with every day. With thousands of new members each month, it’s starting to get pretty hard for my entry level 2gb [...]
Feeding time at the spammer zoo
Every time a comment is made on any CommentLuv enabled site (over 100,000 at last count) means the ComLuv server has to do the checking, searching, fetching and sending back of a feed for every request. With normal comments from normal people, it handles everything just fine and processes over a million comments a month, [...]
Add another URL to your account and get more posts to choose from
If you’re like most bloggers, you have more than one blog. Some people have 5 or more!
One of the most requested things to add to ComLuv was the ability to put more than one URL to your account, that is now possible with the introduction of the Addional URLs page. To add another URL [...]
Add static links to your list of returned posts when you comment
I’ve added a new feature to ComLuv. Some people have posts on their site they want to make ’sticky’. It could be your about page or your special event post. Whatever it is, as long as it’s available on your site then you can add it to your list of returned posts.
Visit the default links [...]
