Sorry...I can't resist...must be one of the very few times that "going down" and SG101 have been uttered in the same sentence! Don't forget to tip your waiters folks, I'm here all week.

I am going to take SG101 offline Saturday morning for an hour or so for maintenance. Check our Twitter for status updates.

Thanks Fady!
It occurs to me we need a better "SG101 is down for maintenance" page. I should at least put some videos on there for you to watch. Or cats fixing computers.
If anyone wants to help with that, let me know.

I'm going to move SG101 to a different server probably next weekend. There will be some down time as I have to transfer the database and files over, and let the DNS propagate. I'm not exactly sure when this will occur, I still have some loose ends to tie up.
BTW, big thank-yous to the people who have sent in server donations. I was able to rent a 2nd server and get it all stood up while still running this one.

This would be a pretty sweet fill in during those times.

I'm going to start the transfer within the hour. SG101 will be down at least an hour or two. The wildcard is how long it takes for the DNS to propagate. I've seen it happen in 20 minutes and I've seen it take more than 24 hours. It will vary on where you are.
Wish me luck and see you on the new server.

That info was lost in the server move. It will regenerate as more people post. In the meantime, you really should be doing this.

Working at good speed. Didn't need to re-sign in, smooth as silk.

Thanks for the feedback. My biggest fear is I did all this work and then the performance gets worse. So far so good.

SG101's awesome new hosting provider is giving us a hardware upgrade! That means we'll be down for approximately 1.5 - 2 hours sometime Saturday night / early Sunday morning. Thanks in advance for your patience.

FYI: I will be taking the site offline for 1-2 hours sometime in the very near future for some search engine maintenance.
