    For that type of system CC is by far the worst option.
    Really? Usually something like Amazon EC2 works out a lot cheaper and more effective at dealing with spikes in traffic than normal servers.

      Google "Amazon EC2 outage". My server was out for 8 hours a while ago.

          Bugger all happens now. Just a blank screen.

          This would never have happened under the Labour party.

            Nah, DimPrawn put his geordie postcode in and the resulting data avalanche crashed the server.

                The top two stories on the BBC are about this website.

                linky
                sminky

                Not sure that's the kind of publicity they were hoping for.

                Oh, and it would be rude not to mention, as always, the Mash

                    From the first linky

                    Councillor Eleanor Scott, who is responsible for community safety at Portsmouth City Council, said: "If Portsmouth is anything to go by, this website is a complete farce, it's identifying wrong crime epicentres and missing out crimes in other areas so you can't rely on it."
