HostMySite Presents the World s Fastest Server

HostMySite showcased the World s Fastest Server at this year s South by Southwest Interactive Festival (SXSW), in the form of an electric drag bike. This electric drag bike, capable of going from 0-120 mph in eight seconds, houses an integrated server that distributes content and data to web pages while it accelerates down the track. This first-of-its-kind drag bike is outfitted with web cams, GPS, accelerometer, and other sensors serving web data while in motion.

HostMySite s support employees have worked as a voluntary team during off-hours to create the World s Fastest Server. Project leader Shawn Darby, who owns and manages the full service all-brand motorcycle shop Darby Customs, has been working to make this project a reality.

HostMySite and The Code Project, a website formed to provide developers with a place to meet and exchange ideas, jointly announced the World s Fastest Server LAMP Challenge. This contest challenges developers to create an innovative application to run on the data feed from the high-end server infrastructure in the World s Fastest Server and post an article about it on The Code Project (www.codeproject.com). The winner, as selected by the votes given by The Code Project developer community, will receive a dedicated server for life from HostMySite. The deadline is March 31, 2009. Visit www.TheWorldsFastestServer.com for more information.

HostMySite provides customers with a full range of web hosting services, including domain name registration, shared website hosting, application hosting, virtual private servers, dedicated hosting, and fully managed outsourced technology solutions. For customers who need only a small portion of IT services, the host acts as an extension of their IT staff to provide flexible, scalable, and affordable solutions. HostMySite s hosting services are supported by 24 7x365 live support through toll-free telephone, email, and online chat.

The Code Project was formed to provide developers with a place to meet and exchange ideas. The Code Project provides developers with all the resources they need to help in their day-to-day programming, as well as helping them keep up to date with the latest technologies.
