There's a news story today about Dell, IBM and HP all working on or having released new blade servers. Huh? What's the point of those at this point?

You can easily (easily) use up all the power and air conditioning available in most facilities with "regular" servers. Why pay more and get a proprietary form factor etc? Are there enough corporate customers who have plenty AC and power available in a small computer room? Or is it something else?

YellowBot was presenting at Twiistup 3 today. It was a-awesome. We told about two billion people about a site and gave many of them a quick tour - and gave out a lot of t-shirts and a big box of delicious cup-cakes. :-)
