]]> The great b5media infrastructure upgrade is finally underway! This may be a good time for me to start doing some technical blogging, then again I may not get the chance. I expect to be working very long hours for the next little while, but it’s going to be fun and challenging experience, not to mention a long over due chance to put my own stamp on the b5media network. Since joining the team last October, I’ve endeavored to assimilate the differences between administering individual *NIX servers operating out of shoe closets in 300+ retail locations, to administering 300+ forward facing blogs in a network that’s at the forefront of what it does.

The change in environment has been both terrifying and exhilarating… the internet is a wild place compared to cell phone stores and pharmacies. Given my experiences at b5media to date, I’m very excited to be setting out on this next phase of growth. A chance to fix the mistakes and growing pains of the past, and define an infrastructure which will scale successfully as b5media continues to soar.
