MacPhoenix: BlogAlways the blogsmaid, never the blogcURL'd- May 17, 2008 This is one of those inside baseball posts. On my main page, I have two things that everyone ignores on the sidebar: Word of the Day and Your Random Weather Report. They both use a script to grab data from external sites&8212;Wordsmith.org in the former and the National Weather Service in the latter. Lately, they&8217;ve been slowing the load time of my site down significantly. It&8217;s taken 13 to 14 seconds for my home page to competely load, which is ridiculous over a cable modem....http://www.macphoenix.com/creative/blog/archives/2008/05/curld.html |
