Newsvine outage tonight

advertisement

Tonight at 10PM PDT, Newsvine will be offline for about 20 minutes, followed by a few hours of "read-only" activity while we move our site to a new facility.

DNS should slowly propagate over the next few hours, and should be fully resolved by around 3AM. The old site will redirect to the new site for a week or so until everyone has the new DNS entries. You might notice some slight flakiness with the conversation tracker and/or watchlists for the first few hours of site activity.

The new facility provides us room to grow and integration with a top notch 24x7 monitoring team. It's also going to free up some of the Newsvine Team to focus more on the product and less on site monitoring and operations.

We thank everyone for their patience.

What's this?
Who's leading the conversation?
This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

Monitoring the health of the servers and network load balancing is always a good idea. MSN is not going to be looking at any conversations, they are concerned about network response time and delays and outages. A totally different thing.

babin,
comment # 1.3

I don't think there's a conspiracy involved. And if they are monitoring, after seeing some of the comments, I welcome them. Some people get down right ugly & nasty.
I'll tell you what, if they come for you, let me know & I'll bail you out. How's that? Then I'll take you over to the article, "How to be a better kisser" and teach you a lesson........Ha!

What I don't get is why we have Bold, Italic, Quote, and Link buttons for our comments, but nothing of the sort for article-editing. I'm not talking a full-on toolbar for blogging, just a few buttons like what the comment field has. It's rather annoying to have to type out the href anchors every time I want a link in my article when I can just highlight and click in a comment.

I've wondered the same thing. No reason we shouldn't have the same editing tools available for articles that we have for comments...

We have embedded audio if the user directly contacts Newsvine and makes a special request to embed audio. (I have a feeling there's no technical limitation on embedding video either, just that no one has asked for it or Newsvine prefers video remain restricted to the Nightly News Club for now). Unless I'm missing something, we don't have the ability to embed audio in the article while authoring. It would be nice to make it just another tool, like for images.

josh,

I would say that is being pretty modest for rolling a entire network over to a new data center, that went smoother then many I have seen and worked on, at least for the users and. Life got a bit slow around 10:05 pm PST as all 18 hops looked the same as this one did from Redmond:

#18 adm.newsvine.com (207.7.229.84) 406.602 ms 456.928 ms 437.805 ms

However the next one I could capture at 10:46 pm PST sure looked nice !

#18 adm.newsvine.com (207.7.229.84) 67.294 ms 67.072 ms 66.260 ms

So, job well done, everything else looks good so far ! Thanks for the great job.

I agree - great job. In a migration of this sort the devil is in the detail, its often the "small" things that trip you up. In this case, at least from a user perspective, it went well.

If there are in fact exhausted bodies with scrambled eggs for brains after the worst nightmare they have had in their illustrious careers scattered around the system .... take heart from the fact that all the running around worked ....

Either way which way, great job from all concerned.

Hang in there folks. Site appears to be performing well, but I've noticed some oddities with photo uploads. If you notice your url with a "new" in it, periodically remove it an see if it "sticks". During the DNS transition, we'll put that in there for you to keep you on the new site. Eventually it should "never' show up.

As usual, a few glitches, but overall we're very pleased with the move.

Also I'm made a few comments & it'll probably happen to this one but the "Need to fix anything?" count down clock has stuck on all of them.

Comment 19.4 is showing I have 30:15 minutes to edit. I don't know how to send a bug report in to Mark so, could you do me a favor & either teach me, Oh Guru or catch that bug & send it along with yours. Much obliged.

I did just have a power outage and I hear thunder off in the distance, so I guess that could be contributing to my crappy internet connection.

Also, it looks like the time is fixed now. For a while it was allowing me to edit comments for an hour after posting, I guess that feature went by the server clock as opposed to a client one...

hi Adam & Tedd:

it won't go all the way, but it'll get you pretty close (probably to the outer edge of the network that hosts our new NOC).

so Adam, what you're looking for is a hop with a high latency along the way - usually represented by an "*", for when traceroute is unable to get to the next hop. so if the problem is with your local ISP, you'll see traceroute hang somewhere soon after it leaves your gateway.

Big data centers tend to block icmp traffic as a matter of course. Probably nothing neferious, just more secure.

voila.

Same with Search by Users and all my friends are showing off-line :-(

I was told it was Obama's fault...

Ha. Bold prediction: We'll be jokingly blaming stuff on Bush well into the next decade.

Well deep down we all know for a fact, it was Bush that caused it, just for discussion we could blame Obama..

I thought it was Al Gore's fault. After all, he invented it, didn't he?

NOOOOOOOO!!!!

Haha - awesome that you're moving the site to a new facility. Can't wait for new features to come a-rolling out...

(Growing, eh? Well, if you're ever looking to hire in Colorado...)

Can we expect an announcement shortly regarding whatever good big news is coming? I told people the reason newsvine staff didn't attend austin vinemeet was because they were too busy with making new toys.

You know Calvin, I happen to have it on good authority that I could get you onto a wide spread podcast if you feel the need to an announce anything fun to the community ;)

It'll be like when they announce the emmy and oscar nom's

On an unrelated note, calvin did you really promise an RAV to any woman who gets pregnant due to actions taken at a vinemeet?

Have no idea who ninja girl is but no none of the women who attended vinemeet are pregnant though maybe this explains why some didn't show (fear or being knocked up)

I, too, am excited about any potential announcements that may be coming up... babies or otherwise.

@Scott - yikes.
