If you’re reading this then we’ve made it over the DNS propagation chasm and have come out relatively unscathed on the other side…
That’s an overly dramatic way of saying I moved this domain and its brethren (slimtimer, ajaxscaffold, minielements, etc) to their new home: a swanky VPS (MiroVPS4 plan) from <a
href=”http://rimuhosting.com/”>rimuhosting.com.
If you tried to visit any of fine aforementioned websites while I was moving cross country then you have an idea of why I’ve moved everything en masse. Suffice to say that what people are saying about Rails and shared hosting seems to be true: Don’t do it. If you want more details on why I had to leave TextDrive you can always check out the appropriate thread on the ajaxscaffold forum.
So far I’m pretty pleased with the move, though obviously I would have rather not had to make it at all. Unfortunately, I don’t have any buddies that have a strong grasp of Linux AND spare time, and I don’t have the money to outsource the job to someone with both. So what do ya get? A weekend spent at an SSH terminal and a lightweight Debian setup running Lighttpd/FastCGI, Postgresql, Postfix and little else:

Oh, if you’re a kickass Linux admin as well then drop me a line… let’s be friends… mmmkay
