Wrestling with HostingCon 2010
Posted by: | Comments
Now that HostingCon 2010 is said and done, we are starting to see what innovative ideas and hot topical discussions were had at this place where the brightest and best minds of the web hosting industry have come to gather. Unfortunately nobody has uploaded videos of that, so instead I give you professional wrestling!
Not sure who these indy wrestling stars are, so if you know – please drop in a mention via the comments.
Yeah, I am a little offended nobody asked the web hosting industry’s media rock star to do the play by play of the action – but it does look like it was a lot of fun.

Instant Screencasts for Twitter and Beyond
Posted by: | Comments
Twitter makes for a pretty nice way for a web host to get it’s message out to their customers quickly. You can send a message to everybody that is following you, or you could answer just one person, if needed. Screenr is the way to get that job done. You can instantly record a screencast, all with web based software – and share it anywhere.
Quick and Easy Screencast Creator
The thing that makes Screenr so twitter-tastic is that it gives you the ability to login with your Twitter account, and instantly tweet your video tutorial when you are done. The recorder is powered by Java, so there is no extra tools to have to download either. Just hit the record button, drag that tool over the space you want to record and your ready to go.
Here is a demo video I created with about five minutes of planning and production time:
As you can see, sometimes you can be helping one person on how to do something – and show many more in exchange. I am sure there is a metaphor in that statement somewhere having do to with teaching that man how to fish too. You can try Screenr for free at Screenr.com. When you do come back and show man what you created.

Animated Birth of a Data Center
Posted by: | CommentsEver wonder what the birth of a data center would look like? We have no screaming here, and no slaps to the rear end. Instead, we have what appears to be a digital animated short on how Skanska builds a state of the art data center.
This video is really interesting to watch, and to see what all goes into building a data center from the ground up.

Cloud Computing Talk on Fox Business
Posted by: | CommentsIt isn’t very often you see hosting personalities being covered in the news. I don’t know why, because they are often some of the most successful out there. That is why I was happy to find this video of Lanham Napier, Rackspace Hosting’s CEO, talking about how is company is competing with the likes of Google and Amazon.
