The technology is revolting


Thanks to those members who rushed to let us know that the website had fallen over last night. When I checked it out, the error message said 'Broadband limit exceeded' which I now know means that we were getting too many hits for the access capacity we had in place! Naturally our service providers have increased this and normal service was immediately resumed. But what good news that our popularity continues to rise and more and more PAs are using APA as their primary source of knowledge.

Also on a technology front, we have had a number of spam posting in this section recently so Colin has been forced to introduce a mediation service before external posts are authorised. Sorry to all our regular contributors, like Tracy @ ICM, if your post doesn't appear immediately but be assured it will get through unedited - we love your comments.

Gareth, APA

I now check the website every day and continue to find new and interesting things there. It is a shame that you can't capture a new items history so that we can see what and where new things have been added - I'm sure I've seen something like this on a site somewhere. Sarah
