Fat Cow – Green Hosting

Producing wind power themselves is udderly impossible, so their company has purchased Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) to offset their energy use. RECs represent the environmental benefits of wind energy, and reduce the amount of electricity in the energy grid that’s produced by fossil fuels.

WordPress 2.9.1

Posted January 4, 2010 by Ryan Boren.

After over a million downloads of WordPress 2.9 and lots of feedback from all of you, we’re releasing WordPress  2.9.1.  This release addresses a handful of minor issues as well as a rather annoying problem where scheduled posts and pingbacks are not processed correctly due to incompatibilities with some hosts.  If any of these issues affect you, give 2.9.1 a try.  Download 2.9.1 or upgrade automatically from the Tools->Upgrade menu in your blog’s admin area.

Hostgator – Green Hosting

HostGator.com, one of the largest Web site hosting companies in the United States, just made more than 1.3 million Web sites of businesses and individual consumers across the country green via Texas wind power.

HostGator.com purchased Green-e certified Renewable Energy Credits (RECs) from a Texas wind farm representing 130 percent of the electricity used to both power and cool all of its shared and reseller servers. RECs offset energy production through a renewable energy resource. The green energy is then fed into the electrical grid.
