What you want is a web farm. You can use a load balancer to balance traffic
across multiple servers. Load balancers can be hardware (Cisco, Alteon, or
make your own with a box w/ multiple NICs) or software (e.g. windows network
load balancing).

You can even do a poor man's version by hosting an entry page on

www.suprnova.org/index.asp

and having that redirect users to www1.suprnova.org or www2.suprnova.org or
www3.suprnova.org. Those three sites would be mirrors of each other, and
would reside on different machines.

Search on "web farms" and "load balancing" for more info. Good luck!
