The our main shared webserver was getting hit by a DDoS attack this morning. After a few minutes of slowness and a few minutes of unresponsiveness we got it all straightened out and got a firewall filter in place to block traffic.
So, i don’t normally like spamming our own blog with stuff, but, I recently got a Zipcar membership and it’s pretty sweet. If any of ya’ll use my coupon code to sign up, I get free driving. Sweet!

From all of us at Logjamming, here’s to the beginning of a happy and safe holiday season!
Election day has arrived! Get to the polls!
For those of you who have not seen the adaptation of Chuck Palahniuk’s book “Choke”, see it now before it leaves the theaters. In my opinion it was a great adaptation that was true to the spirit and the tone of the book. Now, true, there is some humor in the movie and rather than making you feel disgusted at Victor they make you nervously laugh along, but this was a great add on to the story.
The shortest offseason in all of professional sports is finally over! This week, the NHL 08-09 season kicks off in full swing, after last weekend’s four games staged in Europe. As a hockey fiend and proud new owner of Washington Capitals season tickets, I am bouncing with excitement. Yes, the Stanley Cup Finals only ended in June (yes, it was June and there was still hockey!!!!@~), but three months is way more of a break than I ever need.
Alexander Ovechkin is pumped, aren’t you??
Hey everybody. After our normal 45 days of letting the software developers work out some of the kinks, Plesk 8.6 is finally ready to rock. The upgrade will happen during one of the evenings this weekend (sorry for not being specific) after 1:00am EDT. It will probably last 3-4 hours if anything like the past upgrades so, if it’s down for a little bit in the middle of the night, it’s cool. We’re just making stuff better for you!

Hey ya’ll we’re trying out some new support strategies that we think will work even better than our previous support.
At the moment, every single member of the logjamming staff will now be doing support. Gone are the days of “Brian touches the servers, Josh & Pat talk to the clients, Welch handles the billing, & Chris writes the code”. Now, you’ll get to talk to each and every one of us (though, we can’t promise you’ll talk to a specific someone). If you’ve got any questions about it, just drop us a line: support@logjamming.com or check out our support site: http://support.logjamming.com!
So Chris and I talked a bit more tonight about domain registrations and how we’re going to add that feature to our billing software. Trick is, it’s going to be a lot of coding so it may be a but. We promise that we’re hauling ass trying to get stuff working asap.
