   Minor upgrade to my VPS from 256 to 512 megs of RAM. Things should be more stable.

2. Title: Dreamier Dream Server with Nginx
   Tags: apache django memcache nginx postgresql slicehost ubuntu
   Series: Django Server Setup

   Upon posting my first dream server setup, it became apparent that it was less dreamy than I had thought. This article is a reworking of the earlier post, but using nginx as a frontend to an Apache2 backend. Rather than... Apache2 as a frontend to Lighttpd. It has also been pared down a bit, removing the security topics (it didn't cover them well anyway). And its more concise, as in its very much unlike this description.

3. Title: Creating my Dream Server for Django
   Tags: django lighttpd memcache postgresql slicehost ubuntu
   Series: Django Server Setup
