No doubt about it, traffic to emuu.net has collapsed since I moved from Joyent to Linode.

I'm now running at around 1/4 of the pre-move traffic volume. I don't know if it's Google that's cut me off (they might not like changes in IP address) but I don't recall the same thing happening the last time I switched servers (which would have been about two years ago).

rand()m quote

If a person has ugly thoughts, it begins to show on the face. And when that person has ugly thoughts every day, every week, every year, the face gets uglier and uglier until you can hardly bear to look at it. A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly. You can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth and a double chin and stick-out teeth, but if you have good thoughts it will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely.

—Roald Dahl
