New Host and Other Fun Stuff

After months of searching for a new host for kartooner.com, we’ve finally found our golden goose. It’s a hosting service called Dreamhost.

Here’s the gameplan; I managed to export all of my entries from Movable Type and completely re-install MT from the ground up. I love the fact that Dreamhost essentially supports several Perl modules that I haven’t had access to previously. This is exciting news considering I will be able to do new things with this site design.

Which brings me to a rather somber note, the fact that I’ve stripped the site of its previous design including missing images which are currently stored on a local drive and will be uploaded soon. In the mean time it will be using a whipped up template (which I’ll get around to in a bit) and eventually will transition into the new design.

For now, I’m tired and going to bed soon. Moving servers takes a lot out of a person.

  1. Cool! I’m on Dreamhost too. They did a one-of-a-kind sale last year where I got the “Strictly Business” plan for like $9 a month. Really. Best host I’ve been to so far. It took me a lot of time and effort to put all things back together though. I know what it is like.

    I agree your site looks blah right now (no offense), but, think about it as a clean slate, the golden chance to do things right. Often I prefer to start from scratch rather than fix bugs whenever possible. Seems like we have had similar paths with our sites…

Habari has been installed. Time to migrate and will more than likely need some assistance with that. Love the minimalist feel. via Twitter

Delicioso!
