Jegsworks: Computer Literacy 101

I see my post is not here, so the power must've conked before I hit 'publish.' Ah well, here we go. For future reference, hold onto: Jegsworks, Edgecast, and Flux. Jegsworks is real computer basics, a beginner's course in computer literacy. Edgecast.com: Don't ask me how I found it. They offer a patented technology that lets you feed your pages up very fast without changing a line of code, but it's probably meant for big corporations. Very little info, except downloads. They say they 'integrate Google Pagespeeds at the edge.' I have no idea what that means, but I'd say it must be something like server-side includes or code that tells a server how to handle a page. Edgecast offers hosting, among other things, so I'm guessing that the service would only be available for their clients? But maybe not. I have a feeling Tumblr is hosted there. Next up: Flux.ly. Forget it. It really is for big corporations. It offers to automate tasks, such as file transfer, for corporations to increase efficiency and free up workers.
