Technology ChangesPosted by Sam Soltano on 28 January 2010 in NewsSummary: We start reporting changes of technologies used by individual websites. When we show the technologies used by a website in our site info section, we now show also recent changes.
You can see:
- Version changes, when a website upgrades, or occasionally downgrades, a tool.
- Usage of alternative technologies, such as change of the operating system or of the web server.
Examples of recent changes are:
- Myspace.com upgraded from Microsoft-IIS version 6.0 to version 7.5.
- Imageshack.us switched from HTML to XHTML and downgraded their PHP version, for whatever reason.
- Chili.com.mx switched from Fedora to Debian and upgraded their Apache server.
When we detect such changes, we will show them for a few months. That is what "recent" means, if you see "used until recently".
At the moment, you will see these change notes only for a some sites, as we have not yet completed our crawl since we introduced that feature. But you will see more and more of them every day. I hope you find that information useful.
