Today: Tuning the Back End

Uvumi is blowing up today! We were featured on the front page of LifeHacker (here's the story), and as a result our servers are getting hammered with all the traffic. We haven't had any down time, but things were a bit rocky when this morning when the listeners started pouring in. One issue that has cropped up is our dedicated song transcoding server, which hit a snag a few hours ago and didn't recover on its own. This has left dozens of freshly uploaded songs waiting in the queue, but not to worry, it's back online and doing it's job, grinding through the uploads as quickly as it can!

Thanks to LifeHacker.com and MakeUseOf.com for featuring Uvumi recently, and I hope that all these new listeners will keep us informed of their opinions and complaints! Uvumi is nowhere near perfect, but we continue to work hard to improve the service and implement requested features to the best of our ability!
