Announcing feedlounge.info - System Status Log
After our DNS fiasco last month, we’ve taken a number of steps to ensure that we can better handle an unexpected situation like that in the future. One of the things we choose to do was to move the System Status information for FeedLounge to a different domain entirely: feedlounge.info.
This change gives us 2 things:
- A historical view of any issues that arise (you can see if there was a problem recently and when it was fixed).
- A location for this information that is not affected by anything that happens to the feedlounge.com domain.
We’ve transitioned system status posts from this blog over to the new log site.
Many thanks to Geof Morris for both the “.info” suggestion and for hosting the feedlounge.info domain on his server (to give us yet another geographic location). Also, a nod to FastMail1 for having a good example of how this can work.
Also, to address potential DNS problems specifically, we’re now set up with DNS servers in 4 geographic locations in the US:
- Austin, TX
- Houston, TX
- Silverspring, MD
- Englishtown, NJ
We’ve also got a 5th server in San Francisco ready to bring up should we need to at any point.

“Incidents”. I love that. Very LOST style
Great idea. Good job on putting it together.
Awesome - had this been around during the outage I wouldn’t have been annoyed anywhere near as much. Great to know it’s there should anything happen in the future.
Happy to help, and I’m geeked about what y’all’ve done with it.

Remember when I gave the FeedLounge guys a little bit of crap for their recent downtime? The next morning, I shot Alex and Scott an email:
Something I meant to write about but didn’t: I might suggest registering FeedLounge.info as a wholly off-s…
