I've been busy lately, so haven't had a chance to write the celebrity names article that I promised to a couple of weeks ago. I'll try to do it this weekend.

Traffic on this site is growing quickly, as webmasters appear to be using the Related Searches function to drill down to long tail results.

Alas, since this was initially a designed to be a small tool for a few users, we're currently on a fairly budget hosting scheme. It appears that our banners are using up more bandwidth then our content, so we'll have to clean them up a bit.

Also, we've just turned on PHP zlib compression, following the instructions here:

It was very easy to set up, though I don't yet know how to verify the results. Pages appear to be loading faster, but without quantitative data it's impossible to say whether or not this is due to the compression. One thing we'll have to bear in mind is that this method has been known to cause issues when used with Drupal's caching system.
