I’m sure there is more going on, but I’m running out to a tech seminar. Here’s an inside tip: Soon you will be able to check the new ArtCal Zine for special events like these. Look for it next week.

Here’s a post for my geek readers. ArtCal now uses Amazon S3 for all of the exhibition images. That means we don’t have to worry about storage space as we continue to add shows, and that images should load more quickly.

Quite of the few of the ads are served that way too. We just DNS magic to make it appear that they’re coming from hosts with names like adimages.tristanmedia.com and static.artcat.com.
