Krabbe.ca was down a bit over the course of the last week. I was fiddling around with a few things regarding how things are hosted on the server that I’ve got. I am currently serving 4ish websites from the same place. One is of course my own, the other is my SeatoSea pages, which if you’ve ever bothered to notice are basically pages from my own site that are linked unidirectionally so that people browsing about Seatosea only end up reading mostly SeatoSea related material. The other two sites are supposed to be a bit more independent, Reuben.Krabbe.ca is my brother Reuben’s blog and photo gallery. He’s at photography school out in Victoria and his subdomain actually garners a decent amount of traffic all by it’s lonesome. The final site is for the Marda Loop Justice film festival and the spinoff festivals that are now happening at other places in the country. It’s got an independent domain justicefilmfestival.ca. The main switch was swapping primary domains on the account so that krabbe.ca points to the root and the film festival points to a folder. This was done because it used to be possible to find your way to mine or Reuben’s sites through the justicefilmfestival domain which can be a bit misleading if you don’t know what exactly was going on. That’s bad practise if you’re trying to inform people about something rather than confuse them. I could care less if people find out about the festival through my domain… in fact that would be a good thing. And I just gave a link to it, it’s happening in the middle of November and if you can you should come!

Other bonuses include the fact that reuben and I now have sweetaction email addresses that are associated with the domain… which I’m not going to post here because then they’d end up getting spammed and that would make them less useful.
