End of an Era

posted on april 6, 2004, tag: site

Update: [04/06] I am changing over the server today, April 06. It might take up to 48 hours for the new server to resolve. During this time, please send all emails to garrettmurray at mac dot com if you need to reach me. See you on the other side!

After three years, I am finally moving hosts. HostRocket was great in the beginning, but over time they got too many clients and things started to get worse. Recently service has been stable, but there was a period for almost four months that my site would be down regularly and email would be completely screwed.

The good thing about HostRocket was how cheap they were. But I've come to the conclusion that paying a bit more for better service is most definitely worth it. So I bid farewell to HostRocket and say hello to Segment Publishing.

I'll be sure to rave in the near future about how great Jeremy Bogan has already been and how eager he is to make sure his customers are getting good service. For now, though, please be aware that the domain change-over will happen some time this evening.

Most of you will see this old site for a few days and then you'll resolve to the new site, which is driven by XML and XSL and all that good stuff. Goodbye HostRocket, goodbye Movable Type.
