A TechTV show featuring yours sincerely discussing — what else? — silent pc and SPCR was shown last night and also during the day today. Both broadcasts caused immense spikes in traffic (20X the norm) that the site became inaccessible for a while.
I expect it may happen again tonight at 6pm (Eastern) when the show reruns. TechTV apparently reaches 40 million North Am. homes. Traffic from even 0.1% of that audience squeezed into an hour would be enough to crash most non-enterprise web sites. Sorry, but not much we can do right now.
I haven’t seen it myself… I hope they made me sound/look at least somewhat sane. 😀
