Server Movements

My term (and the following holiday in Graz, Austria) has now finished. So before I get straight back to working for my course again I’ll try and shove in as much other stuff as I possibly can.

During this brief period of a couple of days, things are going to change here a little, but hopefully nobody will notice. The site was down for a couple of hours yesterday whilst my Linode, on which the site runs, was migrated to a London server.

Now that it’s running much closer to home (not that I wouldn’t have done it anyway), I think it’s time for an upgrade. So at some point today I’m going to shut down the Linode for a bit whilst I install the latest Ubuntu server and configure it for go.

Then to round off the bundle I’m going to give google apps a go. Seems like a better option than spending crazy amounts of time to configure a mail server to use all of my limited RAM, so why not?
