buh.bz updated, using MongoDB now!
3Great news for one of my projects, buh.bz, was fully rewritten by Disassembler and now using MongoDB. Well first of all, buh.bz, was using phurl code, which was OK, but not quite there, then Disassembler started to rewrite a lot of the code, which at the time still was using MySQL and then some time ago we decided to fully move away from SQL, in this case MySQL and start using MongoDB, something similar what Facebook is using for databases.
This ideas should make buh.bz like 10 or even more times faster then before. Also the code was clean-up, which again it should speed up the code creation and redirection.
Also on the design part, there some small nice things added, like hidden “Custom alias”, nice error reporting, small statistics and Top 5 of the most clicked short URLs.
Well that’s about it, the only thing I can add here is to thank Disassembler, for the great work until now, and hopefully in the future more and more improvements will be added to buh.bz
TweeU plugin for WordPress released (version 1.0)
0A couple of days ago I have created a new plugin, TweeU, based on Tweetly Updater. This plugin updates your Twitter account with the new posts from your blog when they are published and creates a short URL link to the post using buh.bz. The difference between the original plugin, Tweetly Updater and TweeU is that this new plugin uses buh.bz URL shortening services instead of bit.ly.
