VPS.NET 8/27/2010 Weekly Update
It appears we meet again newsletter! Luckily for you, readership rates are up, and unsubscribe rates are down. This means that the boss is happy, and Terry is able to keep his job for at least another week. Hopefully you guys keep reading, and don’t unsubscribe, otherwise I could be in some serious trouble!
Fantasy Football
All work and no play makes you a dull boy. That’s why we’ve setup a VPS.NET fantasy football league at Yahoo. There are no prizes other than bragging rights, and it’s purely for fun. Nick and I are both big into the NFL, so we’re definitely going to be talking some serious smack talk through Twitter the entire season. I hope to see some of y’all join in with us!
Support Stats
I thought it’d be fun to go over some statistics, and fill you in on the work load our guys have. I’ve honestly never seen a support team as dedicated and as hard working as the one we have now. This week alone they handled over 500 support tickets, while averaging a response time just a shy over 15 minutes and an overall resolution time below 1 hour.
Conferences
The 2010 VPS.NET summer conference tour is nearing an end. This week Nick and Ditlev attended DrupalCon in Copenhagen, Denmark, where we were a leading sponsor. From the pictures, and messages I’ve received, it appears to have been a great success and extremely fun time. Not worry – if you haven’t had a chance to meet up with us yet, we’ll be at cPanelConf in Houston, Texas October 4th-6th. I was also told just yesterday that we’ll be at DrupalCon Chicago March 7th-10th 2011. Chicago is in my top 5 favorite cities list, so you definitely don’t want to miss it!
