you know, i'm a complete noob to all this stuff, and this was running on a shared server as i said at $4/month so I didn't know this would happen if it got dugg ... but here is what was posted to me by my host ...


last pid: 33174; load averages: 18.37, 5.05, 2.05 up 9+00:27:57 17:12:03
277 processes: 2 running, 275 sleeping
CPU states: 56.8% user, 0.0% nice, 41.6% system

i have no clue what that means but i was told it was on the front page of digg for like 8 minutes then down :(

it sucks too cause it just went up like 60 diggs on my trip to taco bell. i would have so much exposure now :(

EDIT: also, i know dedicated servers are expensive to run and as of now I don't have that kinda cash to shell out monthly for one. are there places where I can send a server of my own and just pay for the BW for the monthly fee?
