Whew! Isn't summer great! We wish we could enjoy some of it with our families, and we will be sure to set aside time to do so, but it's been busy. Like we said: Whew! Our customers have been rockin' busy too. Here's just a couple of cool things they and we've been doing to beat the heat:

Who knew Yellahooser and Packawhallopian Jumpin' Jim Cradock knew how to parachute? Well, he does, and he did the IT equivalent of fire jumping when he helped out with a quick reboot of Gretchen's Children's Shop, an ecommerce site those busy Yellahoosers put together several years back. As part of the reboot we made an assessment with the customer on infrastructure, and all agreed the web hosting was inadequate and that the site needed to be moved... to Packawhallop. Done. 

We don't host them (yet!), but Shannondell at Valley Forge, the Pennsylvania-based retirement community, lifestyle, value and top-quality continuing care program, needed some of the top-notch sysop smahts (Mainer for "knowledgeable, professional, direct, effective") Packawhallop's got under the hood as part of its own hosting smahts. So senior Packawhalloper ol' Jim jumped in and straightened out some DNS, Qmail (it's an email server) and Fedora (Linux) server configuration, and then translated all the whole shebang (enchilada) in such a way that Shannondell's hot web designer and web master won't need to use SSH, CLI, Terminal or to be honest Jim to make changes in the future.
