These guys have a document on how to build scalable websites:

This guy also put together a really nice post about different technologies behind different websites:

This one makes sence “One’s first step in wisdom is to kuesstion everything - and one’s last is to come to terms with everything.”

Great list of resources. I had copies of just a couple of these and didn’t know about all the others, or that they were now on Slideshare. Always a challenge to find useful information on high-end scaling.

I was going to do such a “meta” write-up, too. But after seeing all these presentations bunched together already (with some in there I didn’t know of) I’m just going to link to this ;-) Thanks man!

I came from http://www.kottke.org and I bet a thousand more people will be coming from there shortly.

This is a great rehash of what’s out there on the topic, thank you so much! Now I’d love to find a similar post on the topic of “Should web apps go Open Source?”. It’s totally off topic but that was my initial search when I came accross this :)

Great compilation, very useful. Thanks for putting it together.

Slideshare seems perfect for posts like this.
