If you’ve been using pingomatic to notify the world of when you’ve updated your blog, you may have noticed that the service seems much faster lately. It’s not your imagination. On September 6th, they upgraded the service, saying:

“our good friends at Textdrive moved us to their new datacenter and to hardware that is significantly better. We’re doing about double the number of requests we used to and there has been no downtime since the move. (All the old downtime was caused by the service overloading the resources available.) It’s going to be even better soon, as we have an exciting partner announcement coming up”

Pretty cool! Can’t wait to hear the upcoming announcement and additional planned improvements!
