Pogoplug As The Web Server for AzaleaRSS.com

July 9, 2009 - PRLog -- SEATTLE WA - AzaleaRSS.com is the one of the first web sites hosted exclusively on a Pogoplug, the incredibly small Linux appliance from CloudEngines. The Pogoplug is a mere 4" x 2.5" x 2" and runs Linux. It has a power plug, an ethernet port, and a USB plug.

Billed as a way to mount USB drives on the web, the geeky folks at AzaleaRSS saw this $100 device as a cheap box to play with. And they did.

This modest Pogoplug is  running LINP - LInux, Nginx, and PHP, all on an 8GB USB flash drive. It lives in the offices of Azalea Software [Seattle WA] alongside a Thinkpad hosting JetCityOrange's Lava Lite webcam and a Mac running Vidalia a.k.a. Tor. The Pogoplug is in good company.

AzaleaRSS is a free RSS editor written for Microsoft Excel 2003 and Excel 2007. The RSS 2.0 files it creates are the basis for feeds, podcasts, and webcasts. AzaleaRSS.com is a resource with information on the RSS spec, how to create RSS feeds from Google Calendars, YouTube channels, Flickr accounts and more. RSS is a powerful web publishing technique and AzaleaRSS strives to spread the word.
