jaiku invites

So after five days and six hours of down time Jaiku is back! At about 11pm BST (GMT+1) or 3PM PDT (PST+1) we had re-ignition! Woooo!

So what has changed? Well it is not on the Google App Engine yet! While the error page was on the Google App Engine the DNS has been updated yet again and Jaiku has moved to some ordinary servers inside the Google network and data centers. If you are still having issues getting to Jaiku now, you will need to flush your local DNS cache and S60 blogger handily provided a link on how to do that. If that doesn’t work then you will have to wait till your ISP does it, normally every 24 hours or try using OpenDNS. As you can see from the below headers it is being served by a nginx sever which is a modified version of apache that is for general use at Google.

Response Headers - http://jaiku.com/

The second thing is we now have UNLIMITED INVITES. Yes that’s right much as I suspected, Jaiku has followed the Gmail model and gone for staying closed but with unlimited invites. So if you have some time to spare please share a few a we have quite a back log to get through here at JaikuInvites and to those that are already sending invites out a big thank you!

Other notice able changes are everything is quite speedy and all the badges seam to working great again even some of the flash based ones that were giving trouble before like the map on the home page.

As always stay here with JaikuInvites for all your latest Jaiku News!
