getDare grows!

depp · 12-12-2008, 03:13 PM

There will some downtime for about 30 minutes today while getDare is moved to a bigger and more powerful server. Not only should this make pages load faster on fast connections but getDare will now be carbon neutral. A minimum of 110% of our data center's carbon footprint is offset in a variety of ways including reforestation projects.

This upgrade is due to recent site growth and a slight increase this year in advertising dollars. Next year will bring a lot of cool changes to getDare and this is only the very beginning.

Happy Holidays!

Cheers,
Depp

It is nice that Depp cares so much about us. And I REALLY like the fact you took steps to reduce your carbon footprint. You care about us AND the future of the planet!

Depp: Gives stuff to us, doesn't recieve things (except normally complaints), cares. Sounds a little TOO much like Santa Claus.
