Transfer to new host is complete

This blog and our website have been transferred to a new host. The effort was seamless. Let me know if there are any problems. I did loose the previous version of this post in the shuffle.

Over the next few weeks we will be doing some updates to the TDI website and to this blog. Two things we are considering is re-activating the old forum on the website and, as suggested by a user, having long posts on this blog visually truncated (but can be fully accessed by clicking on them). We are looking for any other suggestions for improvements.

A new host is UK-based HostDash. Our old host Future Quest, after surprising up with a two week shut down notice, made arrangements with them to take over the site. HostDash have been very responsive, supportive and affordable. I would strongly recommend them. See: Blazing Fast Web Hosting | WordPress Hosting | HostDash | HostDash

    • Well, we were getting hit with lots of spam and there was no way I had to time to patrol it. So, I ended up shutting down allowing any new people to log in.

      So yea, if we can control the spam I would like to get it back up and running. In part, because I am not happy with the comment threads set up on this blog. It is hard to have an extended multi-person conversation on this blog because each person moves on to the next blog post and the old ones get buried.

      Now, if there is a way I can change the comment features to the blog to do the trick, then I may pursue that, but I have not looked into that yet. It seems like re-activating the old forum and tying it to the blog might do the trick.
