Children's Museum of Maine chooses Packawhallop for web site and email hosting
October 2008 - The Children's Museum of Maine picked Packawhallop as the new host for its web site and email hosting. Packawhallop is a Portland, Maine-based software products and hosting company created by Gordon Holman of SlickFish Studios and Jim Cradock of Yellahoose.
The most significant issues to address for the Museum were the incredibly high number of spam email messages staff were receiving and to provide a stable and reliable web hosting platform. Packawhallop moved the site to a server at A2 Hosting, in Ann Arbor, Michigan, and SpamAssassin filter was applied to all email sent to the Museum.
Value-added tools, like Google Analytics and better housing of content in a simple, powerful database management system, are planned for the Museum's web site as well.

Hurricane Kyle data tracked by GoMOOS
September 2008 - Northern New England and the Canadian Maritimes don't often get to experience the weather associated with a tropical storm or hurricane, but on September 28 Hurrican Kyle made its way through the Gulf of Maine and headed towards the Bay of Fundy. The Gulf of Maine Ocean Observing System (GoMOOS) has buoys in the Gulf of Maine, and it publishes real-time conditions from its buoys and from complimentary NOAA buoys on its web site.
GoMOOS' buoy N, south of Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, is here:
