Yes, after 5 years with my old host, phpwebhosting, I have decided to pack up my bits and move my home on the web to a new server, dreamhost.  The old guys were decent hosts, and their support was pretty good, so the choice to move wasn't an easy one.  But I found a host that provides a more user-friendly back-end to my site, and is also cheaper than the current guys, and should provide more graduated levels of security that I need. 

There will most likely be some moving pains in the next few weeks as I sort everything out on the new server.  Think of it like moving house.  The front-end of the site (what you are looking at now) shouldn't change that much, if at all.  It's kind of like furniture.  The back-end is like the house, and it takes a while to fit 5 years of stuff into a new arrangement!  One change that may affect you, however, is that email announce lists will be reconfigured because dreamhost has some strict anti-spam requirements.  You may have to resubscribe to the lists, but if that's the case, I'll send you an email.

 I've been looking forward to this move for a long time, and it's all thanks to a Christmas present from my sister Emily!  She's just bought the site for two years, so you'll see her advertising around.  Like here! This website provided by the generous endowment of Emily.  Thanks Ems! 

If you notice parts of my site that have gone down, please let me know so I can fix them as quickly as possible.

[Update: I've moved!  let me know (by commeting on this post) if there's a broken link.  I'm surprised how easy it was!]
