Dawn of the Geeks

The current Cubia was pretty much just a test to see if I could mirror Wikipedia on a GoDaddy account. It only has about 2.7 million articles and you can get stuck on redirect pages since Wikipedia is case-sensitive but Cubia is not.

A recent dump of Wikipedia now has over 4.5 million articles and Cubia 2.0 is case sensitive so you will no longer get stuck. I’m currently in the process of uploading all the files to the GoDaddy account. The next step is setting up the database and then filling it up with the pages. The whole process will probably take all week. GoDaddy caps the upload limit to about 65KBps and there are nearly 10GB of files that are being uploaded.

Also coming to Cubia is the ability to register an account and submit your own pages. I’m still researching options for creating an easy to use page editor.
