The traffic to the FanGap network keeps increasing and yet DNN just hums away without any issues.

What do you consider a heavily traffficated DN site? 10, 20, even 90 current annonymous users? Our FanGap network receives over 50,000 users per day hitting the site generating hundreads of thousands of requests per day. Since the site is aimed at the tween set, our traffic balloons right after school hours.

The site has been either down, or nonfunctional for quite some time. I have it back up and running providing you with a place to search the latest in development blogs, vlogs, and podcasts on the web. The site provides a full text engine on all the major development RSS feeds there are.

Sometimes in the online world when approaching a project people seem to classify the issues facing a website as a technology issue. It's as if building a web site is this mysterious thing wrapped in so much technology it's just too much handle. Just sitting in the office of a technology provider gets nerve wracking; hearing all the techno geeks spitting out acronym after acronym and having no idea what any of it means - html, Ajax, XML, HTTP, Java, ASP, .NET, Web services, Web 2.0, what all does it mean?!

It has been a while since I blogged, and my daughter's adventure continues to head towards the sky. As you know I wrote about their Jonas Brothers fan site which has now grown to a point where it is poised to pass the band's official website in traffic.

As you know my daughter runs the largest Jonas Brothers fan site on the web. I help her out with the technology aspects of it, and in the process I have been gaining a lot of insight into the tween & teen entertainment industry.

Our little family project is getting some more exposure. This time from the Erie Times Monday edition. They have a great article on my daughter, her site JonasBrothersFan.com and our new endeavor FanGap.com.

So I've blogged about my daughter's fansite called JonasBrothersFan.com and the phenomenal success it's been. She now has over 8,000 registered users, and gets over 7,000 people visiting the site per day. It is growing like crazy.

Many of you know that my claim to fame is being one of the developers of DotNetNuke and writing two Wrox books on DNN. The question is, where does DNN come into play in our Microsoft practice? Another question is where is the relation to MOSS?

MOSS is marketed by many as a portal for the enterprise, providing collaboration, applications, content management, document searching, and other tools. The question though is what is MOSS? Is it a portal, and what exactly is a portal? Why are we seeing a big push by Microsoft for MOSS? At every meeting with Microsoft they say “MOSS!” and with that they say so few get what MOSS actually is.
