Thanks so much for taking time to evaluate – we appreciate it. In the feedback I’ve gotten so far, people seem to go either way on this, which is kind of interesting. Some evaluators like having the context when they are outside of Brooklyn, others don’t want to read artist statements at all :) Once the eval period is over, I’m going to blog about how much influence is contained in these statements – hopefully it will be an interesting discussion.

But I do not find the commentary helpful in evaluating them. Art either resonates or it doesn’t.

We just got our first bill from Amazon – a whopping $12.48 for more web traffic than we could imagine. This is a seriously great, affordable option if you’ve got major traffic hitting you and you need to do something fast. On that note, we recommend setting up an account and getting all of this in line before problems hit (they only charge you .01 per month if you don’t use it). We had done this months prior and it meant we could fix our bandwidth problem in a few hours because the account was there and ready to go.

OK, I know this doesn’t really make much technical sense. But it’s fun thinking about all our data rubbing shoulders. Good luck with the scaling. Please post about your experience with S3.

Actually, what I mean to say: congratulations on your success! I can’t wait to pick your brain about this exhibition and the process. Hope your servers get some breathing room and nothing too bad breaks…
