DiaryDig.org offline

DiaryDig.org is an independently produced site which offers a rich searching and browsing interface to the Afghan and Iraq war logs made public by WikiLeaks. It was built as a research tool to help researchers, journalists, and ordinary people better make sense of what is in the hundreds of thousands of released documents.

On Dec. 1, WikiLeaks began directing visitors to this site with links from their home page. Unfortunately, this also attracted the attention of repeated distributed denial of service attacks. Fighting these attacks has become a full-time job and a strain on our resources which we are unable to sustain.

The source code for DiaryDig.org is freely available; any developers interested in deploying copies of the site are encouraged to do so. (You may also be interested in a development version of the site's code which works with any structured document set).

At this time, DiaryDig.org will remain offline until the crush of attacks diminishes. We apologize for this inconvenience.

Update: WikiLeaks is now running the DiaryDig software here: http://213.251.145.96/search
