Blogging

We’ve Arrived!

As far as I can tell, the blog has now made the trip across the Information Superhighway to a new hosting company.&nbsp  If you’re reading this, presumably, you’re seeing the blog at its new home.

But there are two ways to be sure: first, check the Patrick’s Place logo.&nbsp  If you see a sunshine rather than a coffee mug, you’re at the new host.&nbsp  (If you see a mug, refresh the page once.&nbsp  That should do it.)&nbsp  If you don’t see a logo at all, that may be a little minor glitch that is still being resolved.

The other way is even easier:&nbsp  check the stripe of color at the top of the page: if it’s orange, you’re still at the old host’s server.&nbsp  If it’s blue, you’re at the new server!

I hope that you have experienced no downtime over the weekend while the change was happening, and I am already seeing great improvements in terms of the speed of loading the site.

I think you will also have an easier time leaving comments, and I apologize if you were shut out as at least one of my readers has been over the past few days.&nbsp  I am working very hard to make sure that never happens again:&nbsp  one missed comment is too many!

Thanks for your patience, and I hope things run smoother at the blog’s new behind-the-scenes home.&nbsp  If my first few days with the new hosting company, SpeedySparrow, is any indication, it will be smooth sailing for a long time to come!

  • Hey Patrick, nice new look!

    No sunshine symbol but a pretty blue band.

    Marked my 5th blogging anniversary by riding the space shuttle DISCOVERY. No, really. Sorta.
