WordPress 2.9 is now available and we will be upgrading all WordPress based client sites during the course of today. Get in touch if you have any questions about this new release – or see the WordPress 2.9 info page.
Happy to say that we’ve just finished the first website project carried out from start to finish under our new format – have a look in our portfolio or at the website direct here at: www.aquarius-thermal-systems.co.uk
Yesterday the London Internet Exchange, where the vast majority of the UK Internet traffic is routed through, experienced severe networking difficulties. This was causing significant packetloss and intermittant outages. We just wanted to clarify that this was only affecting routes from clients who go to us via LINX ISP peering, not from our servers to client. But, it does mean if your ISP was routing you via LINX you may not have been able to access your sites, this was completely outwith our control andwas in no way an AKIS issue/problem!
Please refer to the following media report for surrounding information:
The Register http://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/12/10/linx_failure/
UPDATE: This problem is still having a knock on effect and causing slooowwww internet for many ISPs today/tonight on the 10th.
UPDATE 2: 11th Dec, Looks like the LINX problem is still affecting many of the UK ISPs with many forum posters still reporting speed issues – refer also this news article.
Our brand new look website is here – hope you like it. It’s built on the same core CMS system as we’re now offering clients to show we practice what we preach!
It’s been a busy few weeks in the run up to this launch and a frantic last few hours tonight putting the finishing touches on it and debugging some of the inevitable last minute ‘glitches’ – which is why it’s 2.20am as I write this!
The banners below summarise the new packages, but have a look around the site to see what’s new (click ‘read more’)…
We’re still on track to re-launch the site with its new look and new packages by 6th December as planned – but it’s going to be close!
