The worst week of the year

November 4, 2009
By chiarabolognini

Last week we moved Blomap to a VPS solu­tion. What a night­mare, the set up of the plat­form Blomap is based on and the update of the data­base have been extremely com­pli­cated and the web­site went up and down continuously.

Well, my good hours were the hours when Blomap was up obvi­ously and the ter­ri­ble hours were when it was down.
It has been like see­ing 2 years of my work and money and time invest­ments col­laps­ing into an infi­nite abyss.

Actu­ally, the les­son I have learnt is: a dis­rup­tive tech­nol­ogy can be a source of stress for who­ever decides to run it So I need to prac­tice sport to be fit and make my heart work well. In fact, I thought I could have a heart attack soon, but I did not, fortunately.

It has been my choice, it is what I want to do, what I need every­day. Not my food and drink, but my drive.
Social media are the future, I am in there and in the present as well.
