• Site migration

This will including a possible migration to a standard WP install, rather than the current WP MU hosting. I’m also toying with a possible change in URL to http://thephenixblue.com or changing the overall domain to http://phenixblue.com (for overall better SEO).

• Add 1-2 contributing authors in addition to myself

 I would like to get one person to cover Technology topics focusing more on the Linux OS platform, in addition to having a good understanding of the Mac and Windows OS platforms. I’m looking for someone that can offer an open and unbiased opinion on hardware, software, security, and other accepted practices surrounding Linux, and other platforms. This will help me focus on a smaller scope of information, and still offer the same broad coverage I originally intended for this site.

I also want to add one person to cover some Artistic design tutorials. I’m looking for someone that has experience with Adobe, Macromedia, Corel, and other industry standard design software. This person would be responsible to writing general application tutorials, as well as tutorials covering standard, and non-standard creative tasks, works, and methods. I would prefer someone that has experience on both Mac and Windows platforms. Any experience with screen casting is a plus, as I would like to offer some video tutorials. 

Anyone with the experience I’ve mentioned, that has an interest in contributing to this sites content, please use the contact form, or send an e-mail to support@thephenixblue.com with a list of credentials, and a brief explanation as to why you would like to write for a Free Public Technology News Site.

• Remote data Replication
• Remote Load Balancing
• Remote Failover

The ideal setup would be to have 1 web server (Server A) at ground zero that dynamically replicates it’s files to another web server (Server B) 20-100 miles away, while simultaneously sharing the load across the two, and also providing an automatic failover to the other in case one goes down. I have never before venrutred into the realm of any of these topics, so I barely have a surface knowldge if this scenario is even possible, let alone practical. Should I configure this setup differently? I have already reserahced and found (as well as been referenced to) rsync for data replication. I will also note that all of this will be on the Mac OS X 10.5 platform (slight possibility to move to 10.5 server) using a residential ISP connection. Thanks in advanced to anyone that can help out,
