Feedster, a privately held company with 20 employees, updates its feeds
several times per hour, adding millions of new documents daily. To keep
up with these demands on the back end, the company has grown from 45
Linux servers at the beginning of the year to 75. Of those, 60 are Web
servers that pump out its RSS feeds and run on Gentoo Linux, while the
rest are database servers running SuSE or Red Hat Linux.

<chapter>
<title>Gentoo in the press</title>
<section>
<title>Information Week (17 October 2005)</title>
<body>
<p>
In an article titled <uri 
link="http://www.informationweek.com/story/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=172300923">Open 
doors to innovation</uri>, author Larry Greenemeier of Information Week
reports on small and medium-sized companies "creating IT
infrastructures based on open-source software to reduce licensing fees
and increase flexibility." One of the examples featuring in his concise
overview of the many good uses open-source software is being put to is
a company called <uri link="http://feedster.com/">Feedster</uri>, a
blog aggregator service in San Francisco where 60 out of 75 servers run
Gentoo to do the job of "pumping out the RSS feeds." </p>

Truth is I had this prepared for yesterday's GWN already, but in the end
decided to keep it for the next issue.

Cheers
