A special extended edition of Tech Messages for 2008-03-07 through 2008-03-08:

• clusteradmin.net :: a blog to help you in cluster administration
  This is a new blog I’ve recently added to my feed reader. Clustering is something that really appeals to me, and I’m hoping I can learn a lot from this site.
• System Administration Toolkit: Monitoring a slow system
  This is a nice introduction for beginning system administrators. Veteran admins might find something new in here, so it’s worth a look for you, too.
• Heroku
  This product is still in beta, but it looks really interesting. Heroku offers an in-browser Rails development environment. Additionally, Heroku provides a hosting and deployment platform for Rails developers. It’s definitely worth keeping your eye on.
• #234461: Solaris Daylight Saving Time (DST) Update (March 2008)
  It is advised that updated patches are installed to resolve the time zone changes and issues.
• Paul’s Macintosh IIci
  Admittedly there’s not much to see here, but it’s worth giving a nod to someone that has taken the time to get something like this up and running — no matter how useless.
