Things look pretty good on the new server. There are some things that are improvements for me that you won't notice. For you, it should mostly be the same (unless you can tell that I upgraded to version 3.17 of Movable Type).
You might have found a "site unavailable message" for a while today while the DNS servers were updating. Also, there was one other issue that is now resolved (or should be soon).
In order for me to see and work on the site before the DNS change was complete, I had to mirror the site. Some RSS feeds got out with the mirror as the address. That's been taken care of. The mirror will go away after a while, so if you saw it, just ignore it. The URL of this site has not changed!
Permalinks and links to comments and trackbacks on the posts since the move to the new server may fail if you get here from the mirror site before the DNS change propagates all the way through the internet. That should resolve itself in a matter of hours and all systems will be "Go."
The process of moving the rest of my material possessions to our new home begins tomorrow. I'll probably be checking that the blog is working ok on the new server and maybe make one more post tomorrow. After that, I'll be taking a break from blogging for a few days. I expect the hiatus to be less than a week.
The only thing bad about that is that I'll probably be busy when the Fed meets this week. However, I think we all know what the result of that meeting will be. If anything interesting is in the press release or in the commentary about it, I'll chime in with my 2 cents towards the weekend.
