TechCrunch

An internet & tech blog which used to be relevant to something, but no longer is. Rather than giving up, they now just post whatever they want without worrying whether or not it's actually true.

When your web, e-commerce, or Software As A Service (SaaS) site collapses under the load of all the new visitors that come to it because your company and/or URL appeared in a TechCrunch.com article that claims how great your company and/or service is. Success or failure comes suddenly based on your ability to scale from a handful of servers to thousands in a matter of a few hours.

Phil's new "I slept with Tiger Woods" T-Shirt business was TechCrunched and he wasn't even able to process 1 order, let alone the flood of over 100,000 requests that came in under an hour.
