I now added a link to the right under “My Subsites” for a java-based SSH Terminal. Handy for those who want to access their home computers from restricted environments (port 22 must be open).

This is the 5th day of 12 hour shifts at work, so I’ve had little time to progress on EYNTO. However, the show has spread about, and can now be found on Archive.org and soon on RantTV.

The show was rejected from Slashdot. This is good news actually, as it means I dont have to worry about bandwidth constraints and the bittorrent idea is no longer a necessity. I want to thank everyone who seeded 🙂

I’m still working on a DVD ISO. Just need to sync the audio right to the video; create more imagery; and I’ll be done.

Other good news: got a B in Math. Considering I had %40 throughout the year, this is most excellent news (I nailed the exam).

I’ve had 10GB in bandwidth used up for the EYNTO Show in its first day! That’s very good: Its equivalent to 45 people downloading the Show! However; I have a limit of 100GB, and GoDaddy will literally bankrupt me if I go over by even a small amount.

So I’ve implemented a PHP script that tracks the downloads and makes sure I don’t exceed my allocated traffic. Meanwhile, thanks to the help of an individual from another forum, I was able to get a 2nd mirror up. I’m now FXPing the files to Archive.org.

I’m also hosting a bittorrent tracker. I see three seeders on it right now. Whoever you are: thank you. I know there’s little traffic now, but if ever this gets slashdotted or the like, it’ll really pay off. Thanks.

I have many reasons to be happy. The EYNTO Show is complete in one form or another. I’m going to a conference tomorrow and Saturday [BSDCan2k5]. I’m appearing on Underfire Radio Saturday. I found out that I got an A- for my GIS class (Geography Information Systems).

Annnd I got a job! Not only that, but a frickin’ dream job! I’ll be a tour guide for a local tour boat company. I learned that today. This day could not be better.

Update: Weeell maybe not so nice: I have a bandwidth cap of 100GB. It sounds like alot, but keep in mind that the show is 220MB. I’ve just contacted GoDaddy: if that cap is exceeded, I will have to pay a hefty amount. $6 per additional Gig. So if I go over by 100GB, I’ll have to pay $600. Despite the fact that they charge $10 for 100GB of bandwidth.

I’m thinking of using a PHP script to maintain the control of where the show is spread in my hands.
