I haven’t blogged about my recent work on neotext, so here’s another post to get you up to speed:

I modified the django backend so that, in addition to saving a copy of the json file locally, it also uploads a copy of the json file up to Amazon S3.

I then modified the jQuery function to look for neotext json files on:

• http://read.neotext.net/quote/sha1/0.01/

This subdomain is currently served by Amazon S3.

Having all read requests served by Amazon S3 makes the service much more scalable.
