Another big housecleaning
Added few Removed many Updated every damn one Mohey Pori strikes again, as always keeping the bestest imageboard directory up-to-date and pretty much complete. We are now indexing 124 chans having 2385 boards. Also filterchan now parses the querystring correctly: filterchan.forthelulz.net?guro filters the directory to “guro”.

This pie shows the relative popularity of a few common board scripts: I hope to have a way to expose some of this data within filterchan soon and provide two key pieces of info: popularity by total postcount and popularity by post rate. Stay tuned if you dare (care).

4chan.org
Apparently people are still having difficulty accessing 4chan. If you haven’t heard, there is an issue with DNS and the domains aren’t resolving.

Large Hadron Collider Photos
SPS accelerator synchronization, scheduled to begin today, will occur over the weekend, according to CERN and the BBC. LHCountdown.com still seems to be down (but CERN has a countdown on their site).
