We're still here!
While active development on CoralCDN has been stopped for a while, I
continue to operate CoralCDN as an open, free service.
It's now been running continuously for more than 8 years (since March
2004), and continues to get a few million users per day at last check.
Enjoy continuing to use the service!
If you are curious about some experiences running such a service, you
might be interested in an academic paper I wrote about this in 2010:
http://coralcdn.org/pubs/
http://coralcdn.org/docs/coral-nsdi10.pdf
Also, you might be interested in reading about how Japanese developers
used CoralCDN in conjunction with a special URL shortener in the days
immediately after the 2011 earthquake/tsunami to help with disaster
