oh dns, how we love thee

Monday, September 24th, 2007

Just a quick note to share a few useful sys admin sites. I’ve had some email/dns issues with my domain because of the dns servers my domain was using. I was introduced to dnsstuff.com and ran a report that highlghted the issues. I then subscribed to dnsmadeeasy.com and now host my dns with them for a small monthly fee. Now I am migrating all my domain names there so they are centralized. I also learned about SPF files and implemented one on my domain to prevent spam fraud, you can learn more here http://www.openspf.org/

I think the email issues is solved now but time will tell.

Peter Merholz at tonight’s MIMA event

Wednesday, September 12th, 2007

I’m in Mpls today and tomorrow for meetings and will be attending the Mima Salon tonight featuring Peter Merholz of Adaptive Path.

His talk is titled “DESIGNING FOR AN UNCERTAIN WORLD” and promises to be an interesting look into “the historical perspective, the evolution of product categories, the competitive advantage that experience provides and the importance of thinking about products in a system fashion.”

I always enjoy his thoughts, observations and rants, hope to see you there.
