Paragraph reading: Third-party modules give you application functionality such as sessions, passwords, and database integration. Remove the comma before the "and". On page: http://perl.apache.org/preview/modperl-docs/dst_html/outstanding/sites.h tml Paragraph: Of course, the sites described on this page are not the only sites running mod_perl. Since mod_perl has inserted it's name and version into Apache's Server header, we are able to see others based on the netcraft survey results. Reads better (I think) as: Of course, the sites described on this page are not the only sites running mod_perl. Since mod_perl inserts it's name and version into Apache's Server header, we are able to see others based on the netcraft survey results. Paragraph: The first public site to run mod_perl and the hand that feeds CPAN with it, PAUSE, the Perl Authors Upload SErver. This was a birthday present given to PAUSE by Andreas K�nig on August 20, 1996. Suggest a change to: The first public site to run mod_perl: PAUSE, the Perl Authors Upload Server (the hand that feeds CPAN). This was a birthday present given to PAUSE by Andreas K�nig on August 20, 1996. Paragraph: Andreas and Kulturbox went on to create an exciting site with mod_perl that gives you a dynamic tour of Berlin, Germany. BerlinINFO. The images you see here are generated on the fly, using mod_perl allows the GD image objects to be cached in memory for an extra performance boost. Possible cut: Because the "dynamic tour of Berlin" doesn't seem to exist anymore. Also, the site is no longer running mod_perl (or even Apache for that matter). Paragraph: The Internet's largest on-line toy store, eToys.com, uses mod_perl extensively. We use an object-oriented approach built on standard CPAN modules such as DBI, BerkeleyDB, and Template Toolkit. eToys ranked third in overall traffic among e-commerce sites during the 1999 Christmas rush, right behind Amazon and eBay. Notes: eToys.com doesn't seem to be running mod_perl anymore (according to Netcraft) - This paragraph should probably be adjusted to indicate that, during its previous management, mod_perl drove the entire site. Paragraph: Patrick Kane uses mod_perl at The Electronic Newsstand to maintain limited and persistent connections to their Sybase servers where users can search and browse through thousands of virtual magazines. Patrick also uses mod_perl's Authentication hook for seamlessly migrating users from their old registration system to a new one. Notes: enews.com is no longer running mod_perl (according to Netcraft). Paragraph: Scandinavia Online AS uses mod_perl for the Kvasir search engine. Kvasir is Norway's most popular Internet directory. Notes: Netcraft report does not indicate mod_perl in use at this site. Paragraph beginning: Alvar Freude uses mod_perl on http://www.a-blast.org/. It is a "truly interactive text network", written completely in mod_perl. For a quick, non-technical overview have a look on http://www.assoziations-blaster.de/prixars/. (its in english on our old domain). Notes: Netcraft report does not indicate mod_perl in use at this site.

Paragraph relating to Cox Interactive Media: Netcraft report does not indicate mod_perl in use at either austin360.com or gobig12.com Aha, found a valid entry at last: :-) Magirus Datentechnik GmbH is a German company of about 200 peoples, (de)located in Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Austria, and needs a powerful Intranet System for it's internal information flows. We're using mod_perl to do it. Our mod_perl applications make the link between 5 different database systems (Perl power and mod_perl permanent database connections), allow users to get price-lists, make offers and orders, get the status of a client, etc. The advantage of that kind of configuration is that we just need to install a Web Browser on the user's side. These tools are avaible from both Intranet or secured Internet connection. Without mod_perl, the average response time for the top 5 applications is between 3 till 9 seconds. This can't be accepted by an end-user. With mod_perl, the response time seems (for the end-user) to be null (depending of the client's speed). This is only working on a private-network and so we can't give you an address to try it.

Slashdot runs under mod_perl which keeps things nice and speedy. Paragraph relating to Mojam: The word "their" is mis-spelled as "thier". That's all for now folks... Jonathan M.
