my name is mwd

After sitting on our trusty Mac Mini at home for the last few years, and my G3 PowerMac for the years before that, my blog is on the move again, and (assuming my redirects have worked properly) you now find it here on another server, no longer hosted at home.

As fun as it is to try and run everything at home, I had other servers to hand better suited to the task of hosting the blog, and I couldn’t face reinstalling MySQL on my Mac Mini (as some of you may have noted, the blog was complaining about some things MySQL for a little while now when you tried to comment etc.). When I started hosting this blog I knew very little about running web sites, and now I suspect I know more than I want to :)

Anyway, a new server deserves a new name, so I’ve found the shorter, but not less difficult to remember, http://mynameismwd.org/. At least it should save wear and tear on your poor keyboard. Although the old blog will redirect you here if you stumble across it, I fear you’ll need to manually update your RSS feed readers.
