After Adding more features (Plugins) to the Ohr Binyamin Supersite – Jerusalem Life – crashed last week. Apparently one of them caused it to fall. After a Brief Hiatus – Barukh Hash-m / thank G-d, we’re back online.
The question remains – What is the lesson? What can I & we learn from it?
Well, restoring it I learned a lot of computer things like about Linux (operating system), SSH, FTP, WHM, cPanel, WordPress, Mysql, backups & restoring, DNS and more. Great things to put on a resume. I like computers, math & Talmud. Each involves logical thinking.
Would G-d put me through all that sweat – to help me become more computer savvy? Perhaps.
The lesson is probably a bit deeper than that. Another thing I learned is – more & newer is not necessarily better. Think before you do.
For every incident and situation Hash-m / G-d sends us we have 1) a lesson and 2) something good that comes from it. Due to the crash – I thought of ways of developing some more new features and ideas and ways to implement them quicker and easier.
NEW FEATURES
We are adding new features to Jerusalem Life. In the Marriage Section – We have a Sub-Section called “Fast Track to Getting Married.” It is based upon a daily whatsapp sent out to a broadcast group. It gives advice to people to find their mate fast.
In the Donate Section – we started posting Pictures from some of our activities.
We will also be developing other sister websites – like Hashem Loves You and TorahKids.org.
The Picture of the computer in this post was in the Original “Jerusalem Life” Print Magazine distributed Free in Jerusalem about 20 years ago.
