How about some GZip Encoding?!

I was wondering about the intensive ammount of traffic drawn from this Blogspirit account, and I concluded it had to do with the filesize of each HTML document (or PHP output). I simply ran a test on the subdomain and it turned out the following details by using the Leknor tool: https://mikeschnoor.com is not gziped. […]

ICQ needs help! (Update)

While reading the Mex Blog and Der Schockwellenreiter I strumbled upon an interesting tidbit concerning „WordPress“.
