Web2.0 Server Farm launched
All this talk of using shoestring budgets and what you have on hand to release your web2.0 applications, coupled with talk of the new Googleplex being tens of thousands of domestic grade equipment being used for their serving of applications made Bam Creative realise that we needed to get on board in a serious way.
So, with much feedback from our technical advisory board and the top engineers we could get our hands on, and keeping with the idealogy that we should release early and release often means that we’re finally today gone online with our own Web2.0 server farm, as shown in the image above, and these Flickr images.
Those with good eyesight should notice;
- A punching bag
- Internet Starter Book (published 1994)
- Huge green colour swatch
- Internet for Dummies book
- Car air freshener
- Four stress balls
- Macintosh ‘No Disc’ screen
- Monkey doll
- Old bar heater
I’d like to congratulate everyone who put in a few minutes each to build our state of the art facility, and look forward to releasing our Web2.0 applications soon. We’ll be celebrating our launch with pizza and beer shortly.

Thankfully due to the angel funding, we hope to add a couple of Atari 2600s and a VIC-20 to the farm. Now to get rails running on it…

It’s lacking a tape drive (one of those old school ones from Commodore 64 land!) how can you expect to load data onto your system without a tape drive? :)
